I discuss the struggle over property and land rights through the shifting and slipping claims to publicity. In particular, I survey the changing language of the university’s claims to public purpose, as well as the role of police power in enforcing property claims to this space. I explore the formation of the University of California, highlighting the historical continuity of imperial expansion and land grabs undertaken under the guise of “public purpose.” Finally, I analyze the student and community opposition to the university, and its impacts on both the articulation and realization of university’s claims to property rights. I argue that the definition of “public” as articulated by the university’s actions and rhetoric, rests both on its service to students and its role in fulfilling the military-imperial interests of the American state. These claims to “publicness” in turn allow the university to indiscriminately seize land in the East Bay.","PeriodicalId":46838,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Urban History","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45511073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
