Individuals Gain Right to Reap Rewards of Their Labor in Lawless Societies
This paper looks at how the basic right to keep what you create comes about. The researchers made a model to imagine a situation where there are no rules or systems in place. They thought about how two players might interact in such a world. By studying their fighting skills and abilities to make things, they figured out when and how this property right could start and be safe. They found that the levels of fighting and creating things had a big impact on whether this right to keep what you make could happen and be protected.
