	Property (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
		Property is a general term for rules governing access to and control of land and other material resources.
		Some have argued that property rights in a market economy ought to be treated as resistant to redistribution and perhaps as insensitive to distributive justice generally except possibly at the moment of their initial allocation (see Nozick, 1974).
		Those who are tempted to question or disrupt an existing distribution of property must recognize that far from ushering in a new era of justice, their best efforts are likely to inaugurate an era of conflict in which all bets are off and in which virtually no planning or cooperation is possible.

	Property law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Property law is the law that governs the various forms of ownership in real property (land as distinct from personal or movable possessions) and in personal property, within the common law legal system.
		A person may also obtain an interest in property under a trust established for his or her benefit by the owner of the property.
		The modern law of landlord and tenant in common law jurisdictions retains the influence of the common law and, particularly, the laissez-faire philosophy that dominated the law of contract and the law of property in the 19th century.

	Brian Martin: Against intellectual property
		The idea of intellectual property has a number of connections with the concept of the marketplace of ideas, a metaphor that is widely used in discussions of free speech.

	Property as the Key to Self-Determination

	Dictionary of Philosophy of Mind - property dualism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		According to property dualism, even though mental properties are totally different than physical properties, they are nonetheless all properties of the same kinds of objects.
		Property dualism is compatible with the token identity thesis, but not the type identity thesis.
		Property dualists are typically, if not unanimously, anti-reductionists about the mental, which is to say, they deny that it is in-principle possible to translate mental predicates into physical predicates.

		Effective property management is clearly evidenced by the number of well-maintained properties presently managed by Westar and the high retention rate of tenants in the properties.

	The Right to Private Property [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		One reason that it must be shown that the social regulative principle of a right to private property is sound and that it ought to be respected and protected in human community life is that it is a vital conceptual or logical implication of the individualist story.
		So the right to private property is the concrete manifestation of the possibility of responsible conduct in a community where there are lots of people who need to know what they ought to do and with what they ought to do it.
		One reason that it is useful, at least in the context of political philosophy and moral theory, to keep with the terminology of "the right to private property" is that this right is tied to an important element of classic liberal social and political thought, namely, individualism.

	Trade Secrets and th Justification of Intellectural Property
		It assumes that all of our intellectual property institutions rise or fall together - that the rationale for trade secret protection must be the same as that for patent and copyright protection.6 This assumption, I will try to show, is unwarranted.
		Three important factors contribute to this tendency: vagueness about which information is confidential; disagreement about the proper allocation of rights to ideas generated by employees using their employers’ resources; and conceptual difficulties in distinguishing general knowledge and employer-specific knowledge acquired on the job.
		He then suggests that other intellectual property rights be assessed against the justification he proposes and redesigned insofar as they are found wanting.

	The Heartland Institute - Intellectual Property Rights are Human Rights - by Tom Giovanetti and Merrill Matthews Jr.
		The twentieth century was one long economic experiment, with many countries falling prey to a philosophy that private property is antithetical to the public good.
		For the greater public good, that philosophy held, property had to be taken from its owners and redistributed.
		An intellectual property rights regime that provides the general public access to and benefits from innovative works while also protecting the ownership of those works meets the criteria of these instruments.

		These problems - privatisation of government information, suppression of patents, ownership of genetic information and information not owned by the true creator - are symptoms of a deeper problem with the whole idea of intellectual property.
		The main reasons they do research are for the intrinsic satisfaction of investigation and discovery - a key motivation for many of the world's great scientists - and for recognition by their peers.
		Most of the problems that are imagined to occur if there is no intellectual property - such as the exploitation of a small publisher that renounces copyright - are due to economic arrangements that maintain inequality.

	Political Philosophy of John Locke [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Locke proposed a radical conception of political philosophy deduced from the principle of self-ownership and the corollary right to own property, which in turn is based on his famous claim that a man earns ownership over a resource when he mixes his labour with it.
		After his death, his mature political philosophy leant support to the British Whig party and its principles, to the Age of Enlightenment, and to the development of the separation of the State and Church in the American Constitution as well as to the rise of human rights theories in the Twentieth Century.
		Switching to discuss the role of property in Filmer’s theory; if we allow Adam’s entitlement to the earth’s resources and that he wills it upon his eldest son, this does not necessarily mean that Adam’s power is also willed to the eldest son.

		This philosophy is embodied in such licenses as the X license.
		Conversely, whereas the GNU philosophy considers it morally unacceptable to withhold source code, this alternative ethic may consider it morally unacceptable to demand disclosure of source code, even where such disclosure is considered better for society on the whole.
		It's important to note that the GNU philosophy includes a right of access to source code as one of the fundamental freedoms, so a right to secrecy is not recognised as far as source code is concerned: this is one of those meta-freedoms which GNU removes.
