This volume brings together lawyers, accountants, sociologists and economists to explore some central themes of the legal and organizational accountability of the public corporation. The papers offer the first sustained attempt to transcend the institutionalist and contractarian visions which, during the 1980s, became the mainstream perspectives in corporate analysis.
Reviews
`The subject matter of these essays is ... admirably wide-ranging, pursuing a large number of important themes concerning company law and the regulation of corporations ... these essays are thoughtful and stimulating, representing the mere tip of a whole body of scholarship which the reader is left eager to discover ... it is a most welcome contribution to the literature.' Modern Law Review
The book represents an important contribution to the search for the principles which should be reflected in future corporate regulation. As such, it should be read by anyone with an interest in the shape of things to come in this area. * International Company and Commercial Law Review *
It could enrich and clarify the relatively sparse and not always consistent authorities in this country ... thought-provoking and captures well the flavour of current debate. * Lloyd's Maritime and Commercial Law Quarterly *
