'Stuart Wilson's powerful message is never to stop imagining ways in which society could be fairer, better and more equal.'- Tembeka Ngcukaitobi SCAuthor of The Land is Ours: Black Lawyers and the Birth of Constitutionalism in South Africa
'This book makes one see the world slightly differently.'- Prof Pierre de VosClaude Leon Foundation Chair in Constitutional Governance, University of Cape Town
'This book breaks new ground in its brilliant exposition of the dynamics of law and social change examined through the prism of the struggles of landless and homeless people to assert their rights to secure and dignified living conditions as enshrined in the South African Constitution. Wilson demonstrates how these struggles have disrupted traditional conceptions of property rights, opening new spaces through which to pursue the transformation of South Africa's skewed landscape of poverty and inequality. This book makes a vital contribution to the literature on property law, socio-economic rights, and law and social change, not only in South Africa but globally.'- Prof Sandra LiebenbergHF Oppenheimer Chair of Human Rights Law and Distinguished Professor, University of Stellenbosch
