The Oxford Handbook of the Corporation

The corporation is one of the most significant, if contested, innovations in human history, and the direction and effectiveness of corporate law, corporate governance, and corporate performance are being challenged as never before. Continuously evolving, the corporation as the primary instrument for wealth generation in contemporary economies demands frequent assessment and reinterpretation. The Oxford Handbook of the Corporation assesses the contemporary relevance, purpose, and performance of the corporation, with a focus on the transformative impact of innovation and change upon corporate structure, purpose, and operation.
