In November 2003, six authors gathered at an International Symposium at the University of Bremen to discuss their approaches to property challenging the mainstream theory of property rights: Tom Bethell (Stanford), Gunnar Heinsohn (Bremen), Richard Pipes (Harvard), Hernando de Soto (Lima), Hans-Joachim Stadermann (Berlin), and Otto Steiger (Bremen). Their approaches were commented on and applied to a range of different fields by property experts from five nations. The altogether 19 papers are collected in this edition.
