S2. Ep. 1: Trespass: The Right to Exclude and Rights of Access

The episode explores the right to exclude others from private property in the United States, examining both the legal principles involved and the ways in which these principles are applied in various situations. We analyse the tension between private property rights and the public interest in access to resources, examining the constitutionality of trespass laws, the limitations imposed by anti-discrimination legislation, and the implications for access to beaches and the treatment of homeless individuals. We'll also consider the role of public trust doctrine and the changing social and legal contexts that shape the right to exclude. Sharing knowledge that empowers.
