Descriptions, Reviews, etc.

Description: The title of this book - The Fight to Stay Put - is both an homage to and a play on Chester Hartman's 1984 manifesto, The Right to Stay Put. It is here where Hartman first makes the case that property 'ownership' must be approached as much more than simply a purely economic matter: it is affective, it is emotional, it is personal.

Review Quotes: "[T]he book succeeds in balancing philosophical theories with practical life. It is interesting to read and broadens the view with particular regard to the role of media in social interaction."
