The Company in Law and Practice: Did Size Matter? (Middle Ages-Nineteenth Century) (Hardcover)

This volume brings together nine chapters by specialist legal historians that address the topic of the scale and size of companies, in both legal and economic history.

These features include limited liability and legal personality. A detailed overview is offered of how legal concepts and mercantile practice interacted, leading up to the corporate characteristics that are so important today. Contributors are: Anja Amend-Traut, Luisa Brunori, Dave De ruysscher, Stefania Gialdroni, Ulla Kypta, Bart Lambert, Annamaria Monti, Carlos Petit, and Bram Van Hofstraeten.
