- Abstract
The article discusses how the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects private ownership of land and permits the government to take land only for public use and with just compensation. Topics discussed include the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in the case Kelo v. City of New London; modern American eminent domain jurisprudence with historical Latin American expropriation laws; and laws related to property owned by non-nationals.
