Justice in
Abandonment

Deals with acquisition of unowned resources and what types of things can be owned. How one person can acquire holdings from another, by voluntary exchange and gift. Deals with holdings that are unjustly acquired or transferred, past injustices, esp. those done by government. Covers abandonment of property, making it unowned & allowing homesteading per Justice in Acquisition.
Sufficient use of an unowned resource, aka homesteading, bestows property title. "Sufficient" determined by local consensus, emergent law, and/or natural law principles. Voluntary trade or gift. Abandonment criteria are strong, i.e. favoring current owners - aka neo-Lockean, no-proviso Lockean, aka sticky property. Stolen property should be returned to the rightful owner.
[Rothbard rectification]
Weak abandonment criteria, i.e. strongly favors the current owner(s). [allodium]
