Babin, B.V. Proprietary right of the peoples in the modern international lawAbstract: The goal of this article is to define international legal contents of the proprietary right of peoples and to find mechanisms for enhanced fairness and efficiency of the relevant legal institutions. These goals may be achieved thanks to critical and comparative analysis of treaty, declaration and precedent legal bases, as well as the doctrines. The analysis shows that the issue of whether public property belongs to states or to peoples has no international legal resolution standard. It is stated that international law recognizes the possibility for the proprietary rights of the peoples, as collective public rights, having both public and private law implementation mechanisms. However, it does not provide the criteria for distinguishing state (and other public) property from the property of the people. Understanding the violations of the natural rights of nations by making all public resources belong to the state, the law-makers search for various compromises, and most of such compromises are not practically proven to be efficient. The issue of the right of the people to property becomes especially topical, when it concerns non-state peoples, aiming to implement their collective rights within existing states. For the nation-states the problem may be found in the need to distinguish proprietary rights and obligations of peoples and of the states, including international ones. It is noted that implementation of the right of the people to own, use and dispose of such property should be implemented by it directly, and the public government is only empowered to form the mechanisms for such implementation, but not to gain profit from it. The said model applies to both the nation states, and the peoples living in the multinational states, including indigenous peoples and the peoples fighting for their self-determination. At the same time the property of the nation-forming people and other peoples living in the same state should be fairly distinguished. Keywords: rights of peoples, proprietary right, property of the peoples, indigenous peoples, non-state peoples, right to own, land rights, natural resources, collective rights, human rights.
