Property rights are central to Australia's social fabric and critical to its economy. At this time of financial crisis, when personal bankruptcy and corporate insolvency are on the rise, it is essential to know exactly who owns what, when and why.

This project will address this intolerable uncertainty by determining the proper criteria for the conferral of property rights by law.
