Description: Colonial Lives of Property : Law, Land, and Racial Regimes of Ownership, Hardcover by Bhandar, Brenna, ISBN 0822371391, ISBN-13 9780822371397, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US In Colonial Lives of Property Brenna Bhandar examines how modern property law contributesto the formation of racial subjects in settler colonies and to the development of racialcapitalism. Examining both historical cases and ongoing processes of settler colonialism in Canada, Australia, and Israel and Palestine, Bhandar shows how the colonial appropriation of indigenous lands depends upon ideologies of European racial superiorityas well as upon legal narratives that equatecivilized life with English concepts of property. In this way, property law legitimates and rationalizes settler colonial practices while it racializes those deemed unfit to own property. The solution to these enduring racial and economic inequities, Bhandar demonstrates, requires developing a new political imaginary of property in which freedom is connected to shared practices of use and community rather than individual possession.
