“…theoretical diversity around a common subject is the defining strength of the book. The wide range of intellectual interests, from Ingold’s sentient ecology to New Institutional Economics, makes the bibliography a goldmine for graduate students and others seeking to expand their theoretical horizons. The book is an important contribution to economic anthropology, pastoral studies, and legal pluralism. It belongs in every well-stocked institutional library and will doubtlessly be a reference for years to come.”  ·  The Journal of Legal Pluralism and Unofficial Law“…on the whole this volume offers a rich and insightful look into the lives of people whose notions of property can complicate overly simplistic assertions of the naturalness or inevitability of private property regimes that often serve the interests of the globally powerful. At the same time, it challenges perspectives that would deny the growing import and relevance of access to markets and to just allocation of property for individuals across cultures and places. In this regard, I wholeheartedly recommend it to both specialist and general readers with an interest in the politics, economics and ecologies of property, private and otherwise.”  ·  The Toronto Review of Books“This volume offers a rich and insightful look into the lives of people whose notions of property can complicate overly simplistic assertions of the naturalness or inevitability of private property regimes that often serve the interests of the globally powerful.
