The Power of Uncertified Urban Land
Uncertified land abounds. The critical question is whether such land can provide security of tenure, access to finance, effective urban planning, and highest and best use. While much research contests the prospects and problems of conventional land title registration, the power of uncertified land is an issue rarely raised and, if done, hardly resolved holistically. Fundamentally still, economists, philosophers, urbanists and others continue to d…
Urban villagers as real estate developers
Urban village collectives, as one of the stakeholders of land requisition and development in urbanized China, have gradually been driven into real estate development. This transformation has raised an important question regarding how villagers develop their ‘property mind’. From 2015 to 2017, guided by an abductive institutional economics approach, which holds both original and new institutional economics in dialogue, we addressed this question b…
Religious Land as Commons
Recent critical scholarship has theorized the urban commons in terms of value regimes and practices not reducible to market logic. Specifically, it views the urban commons as a counter force to greediness, poverty, and other ills of the neoliberal urban era, but it neglects the centrality of "land." We offer a corrective. Based on a study of the commons that is embedded in religious land, this article interrogates the tradition-rooted ethical mai…
A conversation about land rent, financialisation and housing
Manuel B Aalbers and Anne Haila discuss their respective recent books, The Financialization of Housing: A Political Economy Approach (Aalbers, 2016) and Urban Land Rent: Singapore as a Property State (Haila, 2016). Their debate focuses on issues such as comparative research, a political economy approach to urban studies, and topics of interest such as land rent, financialisation, housing, property states, path dependency, regulation and the role …
Entrepreneurial public real estate policy
Institutionalization of 'The Property Mind
This essay discusses the idea of 'the culture of property' and whether it combines the economic and cultural explanations of gentrification. To explore the idea of a culture of property in the case of Singapore, it examines both what motivates Singaporeans to invest in real estate (e.g. nostalgic feelings, duty, guilt, moral economy, face, filial piety towards ancestors and a way to remember their origins as reasons for investing in properties in…
Urban Land Rent
In Urban Land Rent, Anne Haila uses Singapore as a case study to develop an original theory of urban land rent with important implications for urban studies and urban theory. Provides a comprehensive analysis of land, rent theory, and the modern city Examines the question of land from a variety of perspectives: as a resource, ideologies, interventions in the land market, actors in the land market, the global scope of land markets, and investments…
An Expression of Appreciation
Chinese Alternatives
Urban scholars have been privileged to follow the transformation of Chinese cities. In order not to produce just a new city-based paradigm for urban studies it is important to discuss the theoretical frameworks, assumptions, concepts and theories we use in interpreting Chinese urban development. Given the length of the history of Chinese cities and the richness of their alternative developments, what surprises me is the uncritical adoption of a s…
From Annankatu to Antinkatu
Mega-projects are usually analyzed as state-led public-private partnerships and iconic architecture aiming at branding the city and attracting tourists and global investors. This article adopts a different approach, analyzing the construction of Helsinki's Kamppi mega-project in terms of the politics of property as a process of creating and distributing rights -- property rights, development rights and use rights. Although the Kamppi project did …
The Market as the New Emperor
In recent years readers of urban studies journals have been regaled with articles on urban development in China. Contrary to expectations, what we read is not a multiplicity of accounts, but instead a repetition of one story: (a) the land market has emerged in China; (b) however, the market is imperfect; (c) therefore the best policy is to define property rights. It is surprising how uncritically scholars have accepted the idea that the land mark…

Les institutions de régulation du domaine foncier à Singapour
Institutions regulating land use in Singapore Singapore is a completely urbanized city-state with no surrounding countryside. As a result, building land is scarce and precious. This is why land management has been placed under the control of the government, which owns 90 % of building land, either directly or through its organizations. The improvement of this management rests both on the creation of a group of urban institutions in charge of regu…
State-present capitalism
La ville-État de Singapour, avec ses quatre millions d’habitants, présente une configuration originale d’un État interventionniste sous un régime d’économie de marché : un capitalisme d’État constitué autour de la production du cadre bâti. Cette action s’exerce par diverses filiales d’une holding d’État, et par des firmes privées bien encadrées par ce faisceau d’institutions publiques. L’article passe en revue ces différentes firmes, peu connues …
Globalising Asian Cities
Real Estate in Global Cities
Land and buildings form a significant portion of the national wealth in most economies, but in Singapore and Hong Kong, two small city-states where land is scarce, real estate has an important role in the functioning of the whole economy. Transnational property and development companies are important players in Singapore and Hong Kong. They form an important part of the local stock market and have enjoyed considerable growth while providing subst…
Why is Shanghai Building a Giant Speculative Property Bubble
The Unavoidable Incompleteness of the City
Drawing on the shrinkage of manufacturing districts, the transformation of waterfronts, the rise of edge cities, and the delocalization and deepening commodification of real property, this article reflects on the "newness" of the contemporary city. It argues for the simultaneous existence of historical continuities and discontinuities and the presence of novel spatial arrangements that originated in enduring trends. The contemporary city is never…
Four Types of Investment in Land and Property
The Theory of Land Rent at the Crossroads
A critical survey is offered of various recent positions in the theory of land rent. An attempt is made to strip rent discourse of those peculiarities that have alienated some of its potential audience, thereby turning the theory into the esoteric property of an academic coterie. The discussion of the last fifteen years is divided into three phases, namely consensus (in the 1970s), transition (at the turn of the decade), and rupture (in the 1980s…
Misguided Rhetoric on Rent
Recently in this journal Ball and Clark have debated the theory of land rent. This comment is an attempt to show that the art of wording in that debate has been, above all, misleading. In the process of the controversy the original questions have been displaced by others, and discussion has been choked by ready answers quoted from classic authority. This comment is an attempt to penetrate behind the rhetorical veil and to reveal the important que…
