As Cartas de Datas de Terra são documentos fundamentais para o estudo da história da estrutura fundiária da cidade de São Paulo. Herança do período colonial persistente durante quase todo o século XIX, trata-se do meio de solicitação à Câmara de um lote de terreno no rossio - patrimônio municipal. A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo desvendar os mecanismos teóricos e práticos através dos quais esses lotes foram concedidos após a lei nº 601 de 1850, a Lei de Terras. Para tanto, analisamos quarenta anos de práticas camarárias na tentativa de quantificar e qualificar os requerentes, espacializar as áreas de maior incidência das concessões, buscando verificar um possível padrão na distribuição dos lotes. A pesquisa acompanha todo o processo de transformação da terra em ativo financeiro em substituição ao escravo, cobrindo o período de 1850 a 1890, balizas cronológicas correspondentes respectivamente à Lei de Terras e ao Registro Torrens. O Registro Torrens estabeleceu novos procedimentos para o cadastramento de terras, viabilizando dessa forma a criação de uma base hipotecária sólida. Com a consolidação do crédito, a terra tornou-se ativo financeiro. Três anos após a criação desse cadastro, as concessões de datas de terra foram extintas, sinalizando o final de um processo de domínio útil ou relativo da terra (concessão) ao domínio pleno (propriedade privada). / Cartas de Datas de Terras documents are essential for the study of the constitution of the land structure of São Paulo. This legacy of the colonial period persisted throughout most of the 19th century, and it is the formal request for a piece of land whithin the rossio - land granted from the Chamber. This research aims to unravel the theoretical and practical mechanisms through which these lots were granted after the creation of law no. 601 in 1850, the Lei de Terras (Law of the Lands). Therefore, we have analyzed forty years of practice relating to the grating of City Council Datas (pieces of land) in an attempt to quantify and qualify applicants, stake out areas of higher incidence of concessions, seeking after a possible standard of distributing of lots. The research followed the whole process of land transformation into financial asset to replace the slaves as investments, covering the period from 1850 to 1890, chronological beacons corresponding respectively to the Lei de Terras and the Torrens Registration. The Torrens\' Registry established new procedures for registration of land, thus making possible the creation of a strong base mortgage. With this consolidation of credit, the land becomes a financial asset. Almost simultaneously to the creation of this registry, the procedure of granting pieces of land was extinguished signaling the end of a period marked by the useful domain of the land and replaced with the concept of full domain or private property.

關於台灣的土地登記制度，學者們皆謂之為托崙斯登記制度，或是兼採托崙斯登記制度與權利登記制度的優點創設而成的制度；無論何者為正確，都可發現台灣的土地登記制度與澳大利亞的托崙斯登記制度有相當的淵源。 然而，托崙斯登記制度的內涵為何，長久以來國內的文獻卻幾乎付之闕如。這造成了兩個問題，第一：缺乏對托崙斯登記制度的認識，但是在土地登記制度的研究上卻指稱其與托崙斯登記制度有一定程度上的相關，這在邏輯上面產生了矛盾之處。第二：在國內的登記制度運作下，學理上或實務上產生的問題，常只能就法條規定的字義作解釋，無法回過頭掌握當初的立法精神，更無法瞭解數十年來托崙斯登記制度是否亦遭遇相同的問題，以及解決方式。尤其若稱國內的登記制度便是托崙斯登記制度時，則托崙斯登記制度的演化及變革，便是我國土地登記制度可參考的重要資料；因此國內數十年來對於這方面資料的缺乏且亦乏人研究，甚為可惜。 因此本文嘗試由澳大利亞的法令規定、文獻，以及大陸地區現有對於托崙斯登記制度研究的些許資料著手，企圖一窺托崙斯登記制度的相關規定及精神內涵等。在呈現出托崙斯登記制度後，再進一步與台灣土地登記制度作比較，並為台灣土地登記制度現所遭遇的一些課題，從托崙斯登記制度的角度下手為其提供些許建議，以期國內的土地登記制度能夠更臻完善，更能兼顧到土地權利關係人的保障。

Improvements in technology and the Internet have seen a rapid rise in the use of technology in various sectors such as medicine, the courts and banking. The conveyancing sector is also experiencing a similar revolution, with technology touted as able to improve the effectiveness of the land registration process. In some jurisdictions, such as New Zealand and Canada, the paper-based land registration system has been replaced with one in which creation, preparation, and lodgement of land title instruments are managed in a wholly electronic environment. In Australia, proposals for an electronic registration system are under way. The research question addressed by this thesis is what would be the impact on fraud of automating the registration process. This is pertinent because of the adverse impact of fraud on the underlying principles of the Torrens system, particularly security of title. This thesis first charts the importance of security of title, examining how security of title is achieved within the Torrens system and the effects that fraud has on this. Case examples are used to analyse perpetration of fraud under the paper registration system. Analysis of functional electronic registration systems in comparison with the paper-based registration system is then undertaken to reveal what changes might be made to conveyancing practices were an electronic registration system implemented. Whether, and if so, how, these changes might impact upon paper based frauds and whether they might open up new opportunities for fraud in an electronic registration system forms the next step in the analysis. The final step is to use these findings to propose measures that might be used to minimise fraud opportunities in an electronic registration system, so that as far as possible the Torrens system might be kept free from fraud, and the philosophical objectives of the system, as initially envisaged by Sir Robert Torrens, might be met.
