Summary: | Part of a special issue on resistance to neoliberal globalization. The writers discusses the U.S. government's use of eminent domain to seize property from owners, particularly homeowners. They examine the general use of eminent domain strategies by cities and counties to take property from homeowners to benefit private commercial interests, rather than public interests. They consider Kelo v. Cityof New London regarding the use of eminent domain to circumvent homeowner property rights and examine how homeowners in Riverside County, California, responded to the taking of their property by local government agencies. |
