Condizione: as new. New Haven : Yale University Press, 2012. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 256 pp.- Making extensive use of archival and other primary sources, David Schorr demonstrates that the development of the "appropriation doctrine," a system of private rights in water, was part of a radical attack on monopoly and corporate power in the arid West. Schorr describes how Colorado miners, irrigators, lawmakers, and judges forged a system of private property in water based on a desire to spread property and its benefits as widely as possible among independent citizens. He demonstrates that ownership was not dictated by concerns for economic efficiency, but by a regard for social justice. Condition : as new. English text. Condition : as new copy. ISBN 9780300134476. Keywords : RECHT, Water rights.
