Property, Patrimony, and Territory covers land use planning at various levels of government, by different agencies involved, and for various configurations of land and different territorial and property domains. The author argues that the geophysical attributes of land, though important, are often less critical factors to consider in effective land use planning than the social, economic, and political institutions that bear on land use decisions.

Due to the paucity of homegrown planning literature in the Philippines and the need to push certain planning concepts and approaches across the table of public policy discourse, Serote takes a critical and polemical stance on many of the issues he raises in the book.
