Friends and foes is an abridged division of unity that was ideally meant for human society and is by design fractured. One has a foe in whoever wants what is legally yours. The legality of ownership is through birthrights and the return of labor. Inheritance is also included by some jurist but birthright encompasses this outcome.
On the scales of justice however the Natural Resource is a party to all ownership rights because all ownership originates from this only to return to it. A good example is the claimant of ownership himself, who will return to dust after an appointed time.
From the perspective of the philosophy of law making, the factors of adjudication have to seek as a prerequisite, the source of ownership in every case of a claim. Is it inheritance or an outcome of labor?!
When it comes to the management of ownership in the environment of political boundaries in Nation States the value chain for ownership can be very specific. It has been and remains a misnomer that the enormity of wealth determines a right to rule, and capped with an arsenal the right to rob! This is our world and human society both in the micro and macro context. What is argued to defend this status quo is the evolution of technology that would stagnate or regress otherwise!
Let man eat man and the norm of the jungle prevail is a question that challenges the evolution of human civilization. Can the human spices not take that quantum leap into that next level of civilization! The answer is absolutely ‘yes’ only with the collective will of the people anywhere and everywhere. Whilst economics and sociology have been and remain bed partners in time, the establishment of judicious equity warrants the defining of limits on both counts. The sociological benchmark is the establishment of a minimum level for subsistence standards for all humans all over the globe. The economic benchmark is directly related to labor, research and the discovering of the truth with a uniform compensation of labor. In both cases the essence of optimum returns stand satisfied and we can foresee happier and peaceful coexistence. This is in the current parlance is a form of existentialism.
To sum up let it be known that there is no law, local or international, to deter the initiative and indulgence can only add strength to the uniqueness of the future we all desire.
