Recenzii
Despite the narrowness of the focus, the ground covered is impressive. Fox draws on empirical research and philosophical arguments with equal facility.Conceptualising Home is a fascinating read that challenges fundamental assumptions about the desirability of home ownership and exposes key contradictions in legal policy. It deserves to be widely read.
Descriere
This book focuses on competing interests of creditors who lend money against the security of the property and the occupiers who dwell in the property.
