3.3. The Lockean Property Theory
-
There are three ways to acquire land:
-
On the frontier, it is possible to acquire land by homesteading
it - fencing it, protecting it and proclaiming it is yours.
-
Normal active real estate is transferred from one person to the other
by transfer of title: voluntarily giving it to him.
-
A land that was abandoned can be claimed by adverse possession: moving
in it, fencing it, etc.
