内容説明

This insightful Research Handbook contributes to the theoretical and practical understanding of corporate purpose and personhood, which has become the central debate of corporate law. It provides cutting-edge thoughts on the role of corporations in society and the nature of their rights and responsibilities. Featuring contributions from leading scholars, the Research Handbook invites readers to reconsider corporate purpose and personhood by offering a perceptive route to better understand changes that are already apparent in the modern corporation across the world. It provides examples of how a 21st century lens for viewing corporate purpose and personhood will leave us with a different picture and a new understanding of these topics, as well as future directions in corporate social responsibility. Chapters offer analysis of a wide range of topics related to corporate purpose and personhood, including shareholder primacy, stakeholder governance, corporate social responsibility and benefit corporations. This Research Handbook will be a vital resource for students and academics in the areas of corporate and constitutional law, as well as for researchers with an interest in management, business and social responsibility.
