Book Synopsis
Tracing the development of registries in developed and developing countries, the author argues that, while no single institutional arrangement is appropriate across the board, there are general principles that may be applied to facilitate the protection of both private property and impersonal trade.

Trade Review
"Benito Arrunada has written an excellent and well-thought-out work that highlights the importance of legal rules - rather than speculative stylized ideas about institutions - in understanding the true value of property rights and the problems impeding real-world reform. The book will find a ready audience among economists, lawyers, political scientists, and the aid community." (Pablo T. Spiller, University of California, Berkeley)"
