Rescuing Business
The Making of Corporate Bankruptcy Law in England and the United States
Gebonden Engels 1998 9780198264729Samenvatting
Corporate bankruptcy is a defining characteristic of the market economy. It encapsulates the fundamental conflict between capital and labour. Yet, with one or two notable exceptions, the political and social dynamics of bankruptcy law and practice have been largely overlooked by socio-legal scholars. This book remedies that neglect. It compares English and American insolvency laws to identify the underlying political forces that established corporate bankruptcy law on both sides of the Atlantic. It shows how corporate insovency regulation is the creation of the lawyers who interpret and administer it. This book will be welcomed as an important sociological study and advances our understanding of how substantive law results from conflicts among the professionals who help to create it.
