The Delegitimation Of Land Tenure In Tropical Peten, Guatemala, Charles Clark

Research Papers

Lack of legitimacy of land tenure institutions in the tropical Peten, Guatemala, contributes to the tenure insecurity that encourages rapid colonization, deforestation and forest conversion to agriculture. The author identifies historical periods of delegitimation of land tenure institutions and analyzes social, political and property rights trends which reduced thee effectiveness of property rights in the Peten.

Maintaining The Status Quo: Protecting Established Water Uses In The Pacific Northwest, Despite The Rules Of Prior Appropriation, Reed D. Benson

Faculty Scholarship

Water law in the Northwest states has long been based on the well-established rules of the Prior Appropriation Doctrine.

Giving Birth To Onions, Stefanie London Feld-Galbraith

Art & Art History ETDs

I have always questioned the authority of Art History. I was taught that the historians gave a true, unbiased examination of art, while the critics and the artists created works wrought with subjectivity. But experience has taught me that nothing can be looked upon objectively. Even as we look, we are changing what we see.

There is not just one truth, one voice; there are many, and this is mine. The stories you are about to see are real, except for the ones I made up, which are also real. I think the truth must be something that wraps around …
