A Research Agenda for Property Law

Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.

Bringing together a diverse array of property law specialists, this timely Research Agenda explores the theoretical and doctrinal dimensions of the main subareas of property law. It examines the current tensions between the protection of existing property interests and the need to tackle societal challenges, such as digitalisation, the creation of energy communities, and the climate crisis.

Multidisciplinary in scope, A Research Agenda for Property Law analyses various subfields including property theory and constitutional property law, presenting key insights into the role of property law in society. Contributing authors critically assess the internal and external challenges currently facing property law, such as the development of disruptive technologies, globalisation and the energy transition, and highlight the pressing need to accommodate them. Ultimately, it offers a way forward for future research in the coming decade to address these issues.

This prescient Research Agenda is a fundamental resource for scholars and students of commercial law and property law. Its practical implications and recommendations for future research will also be beneficial to legal practitioners and policymakers at the local, national and international level.
