Abstract
An initiative has been taken including researchers in Poland, Germany and Norway for presenting and comparing different compulsory acquisition systems. Norwegian law allows expropriation for public and even for many private purposes. The author discuss if structures of property and even topography and climate could be variables of importance to the discussion if even private purposes should legitimate expropriation. Norway’s use of expropriation is limited by a set of other principles, by procedural and political costs. Norwegian compensations are with a few exceptions based on economical loss as direct effect from the land acquisition: normalised marked value or capitalised loss of yield. Forms of profit chare or other valuation principles are exceptional in law, not openly used by courts, but probably occur more frequently by negotiations.
