'Property Rights and Social Justice: Progressive Property in Action provides a valuable and genuinely ground-breaking examination of Irish constitutional property law 'in action' through the lens of progressive property theory. As such, this book more than lives up to its promise that its focus on combining doctrine and theory will enliven and enrich debates about the complex relation between social justice and property rights, not only in an Irish context, but for all scholars and students interested in property theory and comparative constitutional property law. Providing a treasure trove of Irish examples, this book opens up a new chapter in progressive property debates.'
