		Ownership is the state or fact of exclusive possession or control of property, which may be an object, land/real estate, intellectual property or some other kind of property.
		Ownership is the key building block in the development of the capitalist socio-economic system.

	Public ownership - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Public ownership (also called government ownership or state ownership) is government ownership of any asset, industry, or corporation at any level, national, regional or local (municipal).
		Public ownership can protect consumer interests in sectors where competition is low, where choices are important but made infrequently, and/or where consumers do not have the expertise to make good decisions (such as in health care).
		Public ownership of profitable services may lead to "gold-plating" (over-investment in assets) if decisions are driven by engineering ideals and not efficiency concerns.

	Property (ownership right) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Modern property rights can be said to begin with the transition from ownership by entities as being the primary form of property right, to the theory that property rights are to promote the general good, and specifically encourage economic development and utilization of property.
		Communism argues that only collective ownership through a polity, though not necessarily a state, will assure the minimization of unequal or unjust outcomes and the maximization of benefits, and that therefore all, or almost all, private property should be abolished.
		Communal Property systems describe ownership as belonging to the entire social and political unit, while corporate systems describe ownership as being attached to an identifiable group with an identifiable responsible individual: generally a family.

	Vacation Ownership
		Vacation ownership also known as timesharing offers consumers the opportunity to purchase fully furnished condominium style vacation accommodations in a variety of forms such as fixed weeks, floating weeks, points based clubs, fractionals and cruises for only a percentage of the cost of full condominium or vacation home ownership.

	The Ownership Society - Mises Institute (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		"Ownership Society" was already vapid and insufferable halfway through the GOP convention, where it had been pounded flat by pundits, politicians, and media stars even before Bush himself invoked it. It is nonetheless interesting as a piece of political propaganda, and deserves a closer look.
		Nor does it establish a principle concerning the justice of ownership, as is clear from the first application cited by Bush administration spokesmen: housing.
		This is an Ownership Society that does not threaten the interests of the state, but neither does it have anything to do with liberty.

	Media Ownership Regulation in Australia
		The major effect of the laws is to prevent the common ownership of newspapers, television and radio broadcasting licences that serve the same region.
		The purpose of the legislation is to encourage diversity in the ownership of the most influential forms of the commercial media: the daily press and free-to-air television and radio.
		The justification for the rules is that the effective functioning of a democracy requires a diverse ownership of the daily mass media to ensure that public life be reported in a fair and open manner.

		It maintained rules banning ownership of more than one television station in all but the largest markets and, with some exceptions, banning ownership of a television station and a newspaper in the same market (also known as cross-ownership).
		The FCC's vote relaxing ownership rules was thwarted by Congress, and even the FCC came up short of eliminating the federal limit on what percentage of the U.S. population one company could reach with its stations.

	2005 Anuual Report: Local TV/Ownership
		The pattern of television station ownership in recent years originated in the Telecommunications Act of 1996, a Clinton-era law that removed a number of limits on station ownership, allowing companies to buy more stations in more parts of the country than ever before.
		The first was the ownership cap, which Powell proposed raising from 35% of the country's households to 45%.
		In the face of the controversy surrounding the FCC's proposed ownership rules, Powell would argue that he had no choice but to deregulate in the face of the Sinclair ruling and similar court decisions.

		It is therefore particularly important that, even if the new developments are specified as being the property of the original owner, that the state of proof of the software at the moment when the sources are handed over to the subcontractor, can easily be established by an external deposit for the parties concerned.
		This is also the case when a subscription contract allows the subscribers to be co-owners of the software programme in cases when the software is not completely developed, installed and paid up by the subscriber, who would have financed at least part of the development.
		In matters of ownership conflict on a software programme, the anteriority of a deposit is not necessarily determinant.

	National Practices in Employee Ownership (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		Acceptance of ownership was driven by a desire to expand Sweden’s internet technology sector, the growing use of stock options as part of a compensation plan and for the privatization of some public services.
		Employee ownership declined from 48% in 1994 to 39% in 1997.
		In these plans, worker ownership was encouraged by giving employees preferential treatment in the purchase of stock in their companies, but the privatization did not require the employees to hold the stock, and many sold in the recession that followed in the collapse of the Soviet Union.

		The idea of an ownership society—where everyone has private retirement and investment accounts, rather than Social Security—is great, if you've got extra money to invest for your future.
		But you will hear about something Republicans are now calling the "Ownership Society." The notion is to expand private ownership through more tax cuts on capital investments, tax credits for saving and privatized Social Security.

	The Ownership Society and Employee Ownership
		A National Center for Employee Ownership survey found that a typical options recipient would realize an average of a few thousand dollars in value per year over a 10-year period, although there is significant variation.
		And here's the real kicker: perhaps the most unsung benefit of employee ownership is that it has successfully transferred ownership to tens of millions of American workers without being burdensome to taxpayers.
		Our President stood in front of hundreds of SRC employees-hard workers who took their once-fading company, increased employment 900%, stimulated stock growth from 10 cents to over $80 per share, and built a company that is now widely recognized for their effective management style-and didn't utter a word of acknowledgement.

	Gun Ownership in India
		Curtailing gun ownership, to curb violent crime, through denying licenses or making legal arms and ammunition ridiculously expensive is based on flawed reasoning.
		Since all criminals are instinctively driven by self-preservation allowing legal ownership of firearms by law abiding citizens would act as a serious deterrent.
		In countries where gun ownership rates are high like the United States (which has a firearm to population ratio of approx 96:100, i.e., almost 1 firearm for every man woman and child), Switzerland, New Zealand etc. several times more people die in road accidents than from firearm accidents.

		These officials have now calculated that the received campaign wisdom is wrong and that private ownership of such core responsibilities as education, healthcare and retirement can help Bush win re-election.
