Unequal property rights
Name(s):
Denial of equal property rights because of discrimination
Prejudicial treatment in relation to ownership
Incidence
Property rights are so important because their actual nature determines resource allocation in a world of conflicting user interests.
Claim
Little economic activity would occur in the absence of rights, or powers, to consume, obtain income from, and transfer assets. The level of economic development of a region will therefore depend on its system of property rights.
