Primes

• Anti-Commons Tragedy
  • In fractional and inherited land ownership, land held by many co-heirs cannot be used or sold because each must consent, producing idle agricultural land and eroded wealth.

    This sourceAnalyzes heirs'-property paralysis under tenancy-in-common: land held by many co-heirs, each holding a fractional interest, sits idle or is lost to forced partition sales because no single owner controls it — a consolidation remedy (the later Uniform Partition of Heirs Property Act) addresses the fragmented co-heir ownership.
