Chicana/Chicano Land Tenure In The Agrarian Domain: On The Edge Of A "Naked Knife", Guadalupe T. Lunda Jan 1998

Chicana/Chicano Land Tenure In The Agrarian Domain: On The Edge Of A "Naked Knife", Guadalupe T. Lunda

Michigan Journal of Race and Law

Neither sovereignty nor property rights could forestall American geopolitical expansion in the first half of the nineteenth century. The conflicts that resulted from this clash of doctrine with desire are perhaps most evident in the history of the Chicanas/Chicanos of Texas, California, and the Southwest, who sought to maintain their land and property, as guaranteed by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, in the aftermath of the U.S.- Mexico War. Integrating an exploration of case law with political and social histories of the period, the Author explores the sociolegal significance of Chicana/Chicano land dispossession; exposes the racial, economic, and political motivations …

Participatory Government And Communal Property: Two Radical Concepts In The Virginia Charter Of 1606, Finbarr Mccarthy Jan 1995

Participatory Government And Communal Property: Two Radical Concepts In The Virginia Charter Of 1606, Finbarr Mccarthy

University of Richmond Law Review

On April 26, 1607, about one hundred English men landed on the Atlantic shore of North America near Jamestown, Virginia. There they established the foundation for what would become the first permanent English colony in America. These men, and the men and women who followed in the next decade, left as their legacy a society that combined a rudimentary form of popular government with a system of private property. But these settlers established that society only after conducting seventeen turbulent years of social experiments. Had those experiments conducted in that Virginia swamp turned out differently, we might now live under …

Formalism And Fairness: Matthew Deady And Federal Public Land Law In The Early West, Ralph James Mooney Apr 1988

Formalism And Fairness: Matthew Deady And Federal Public Land Law In The Early West, Ralph James Mooney

Washington Law Review

By 1880 Congress had passed nearly 3000 statutes granting or regulating parts of the public domain. Administrative and judicial case loads increased correspondingly, as many thousands of claims had to be verified and recorded and growing numbers of disputes adjudicated. This article recalls an early far-west chapter of the story, a remarkable series of decisions by Oregon federal district Judge Matthew P. Deady interpreting the cornerstone of Pacific Northwest public land law, the 1850 Oregon Donation Act. Although Deady decided other public land law questions as well, it is his Donation Act decisions helping to determine ownership of the Portland …
