The essays in this collection examine the conceptual notions of property and obligations in law. Ideas of property and of obligations are central, organising concepts within law but are nevertheless liable to fragmentation and esoteric development when applied in particular contexts. In particular this collection focuses on the ways in which those concepts are applied to commercial law, land law, human rights law, intellectual property law, the law of restitution, company law and legal theory. This is a challenging and progressive collection of essays which cohere into an extensive examination of private law.

ZERO 2.0 – Heinz Mack’s Oeuvre from a Present-Day Perspective A particular quality of Heinz Mack’s art is its relevance regarding questions of our time. By means of works from all creative periods the book examines Mack’s relationship to technology, science and nature and offers exciting approaches, for example with regard to the present-day challenges of the transformation of technology or the climate catastrophe.Heinz Mack was always far ahead of his time: His reflector walls and plantations of lamellae devised 65 years ago anticipate present-day photovoltaic installations. His study of air, water, light and sand helps to reflect the acute threat to natural resources. While the artist saw desert landscapes as empty, free spaces for his Land Art, today the Arctic and the Sahara symbolize climate change and the destruction of nature. This multi-faceted, far-seeing publication shows Heinz Mack as an artist of the 21st century.
