{"product_id":"property-2","title":"Property","description":"A powerful examination of how property shaped the modern world – and why it now threatens the freedoms and stability it was meant to sustain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProperty carries a great promise: that it will make you rich and set you free. But it is also a weapon, an agent of displacement and exploitation, the currency of kleptocrats and oligarchs. In Britain, it has led to a new class division between those who own and those who don’t.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Property is a vivid, far-reaching analysis of our concept of property ownership, from 16th-century enclosures to the present day. It tells powerful stories – of life in the developer-led boomtown of Gurgaon in India, of the struggles to form Black communities in Missouri and Georgia, of a giant experiment in co-operative living in the Bronx, of the impacts of Margaret Thatcher’s “property-owning democracy.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbove all, Property asks how we have come to view our homes as investments – and it offers hope for how things could be better, with reform that might enable the social wealth of property to be returned to society.","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57828562043215,"sku":"9780571350094","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/9780571350094_1-property.jpg?v=1780252423","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/property-2","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
