Item type:Publication, Property without law?: Why land titling and adverse possession do not solve the problem of informal property(University of Zaragoza, 2024-01-01)It is common to find «informal ownership» in Latin America in the context of illegal takings. Human settlements in Peru, favelas in Brazil, or camps in Chile, in all cases, a group of people builds land rights outside the law. Although this phenomenon has been analyzed many times from an economic perspective, mostly proposing the granting of property titles as a solution, the review of the Peruvian case shows its ineffectiveness. In 1982, 53.54 % of the houses in Peru had property titles; however, after almost forty years and multiple land titling laws, in 2017 this percentage dropped to 50.65 %. Moreover, between 2001 and 2018, 46 % of new housing was built upon informal property through illegal takings. The present investigation proposes another view from the legal perspective, investigating on the traditional civil institution of the adverse possession, and offering a refocus to the problem. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, La concepción medieval de la propiedad. Dominium y soberanía como base de la secularización del mundo moderno(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-12-03)In this paper, I establish a reconstruction of the tensions between the theological and secular foundations of the concept of property during the Middle Ages. What I propose is that this tension is represented as well by tensions between the power of the church and monarchical power, which leads, in turn, to the secularization processes that we can find as a basis for modernity. In that sense, from this tension also arises the basis for the modern capitalist conception of property.1
