Expropriation & Compensation in Greek Land Property Law in Comparison with the ECHR: Reviewing Cases and Discussing Property Management with DLT/Blockchain Functionalities

Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, property management with DLT / Blockchain functionalities is a state-of-the-art topic. In particular, the real (land) property law is based upon two country-oriented concepts: “(Compulsory) Expropriation” and “due Compensation” as they projected to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). This assignment after reviewing the compulsory expropriation of real property and the relative due compensation procedures in Greece, discusses: (a) cases before the Greek courts regarding violations and adaptations of the ECHR, and (b) real property management with Blockchain functionalities as a Distributed Ledger (DLT) technology. For this purpose, after introducing the compulsory expropriation procedure in Greece, a number of properly formulated questions (“What is the legal protection against the expropriation of real property?”; “Is it permitted expropriation extension to nearby properties?”; “Is it possible expropriation without compensation?”; and “Is it allowed revocation & lifted ipso jure of a concluded compulsory expropriation?”) are discussed, reviewed, answered, and projected both to ECHR and to upcoming DLT/Blockchain era.
