This book explains how people define and enforce property rights when they cannot rely on the government to do so, why governments are unable or unwilling to recognize property rights, and why legal titling is unable to improve economic livelihoods in fragile states.

Arms and the University probes various dimensions of the tense relationship between the military and the university. Developing and applying a theory of civic and liberal education, this book shows how some military presence on campus can contribute to the diversity of ideas and the education of all students.

This book shows how claim clubs - informal governments established by squatters in each of the major frontier sectors of agriculture, mining, logging and ranching - substituted for the state as a source of private property institutions and how they changed the course of who received a legal title, and for what price, throughout the nineteenth century.
