"There are 315,000 homeowners associations in America. Within them are 62,000,000 residents, many of whom discover to their dismay that they are living under a form of government they never expected, nor voted for! An HOA can seize and auction off your home without advance notice. Your home could be seized over an inadvertant dues underpayment of just 78 cents. You can be fined thousands of dollars if your garage door is left open more than 10 minutes. Ward Lucas reveals startling facts about how the HOA movement is impacting Americans ... and destroying them."--Page 4 of cover.

Both “land-use regulation” and “territorial collective services” have traditionally been accomplished in cities through coercive efforts of public administrations. Recently, land-use regulation and collective service provision regimes have emerged within “contractual communities:” territory-based organisations (usually, but not exclusively residential) such as homeowners’ associations. This book examines the problems and opportunities of contractual communities, avoiding both the alarmism and unwarranted apologies found in much of the literature on contractual communities. The central notion is that cases in which coercive action by a public agency was deemed indispensable have been unjustly overstated, while the potential benefits of voluntary self-organising processes have been seriously understated. The authors propose a revised notion of the state role that allows ample leeway for contractual communities of all forms.
