Corporate Bankruptcy Law in China
Principles, Limitations and Options for Reform Natalie Mrockova, University of Oxford Building on new data and interviews with those closest to the law and its perceived problems – judges, lawyers, government officials, entrepreneurs, bankers, consultants and academics in China and abroad – this book examines the problems that have precluded greater use of the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law in China, and failed attempts at reform. It explores the limited practical effectiveness of China’s insolvency law, why it has been so rarely used in practice (even considering the recent increase in the total volume of cases), whether it is desirable for the law to be used more readily in China, and possible reforms.

From Corporate Social Responsibility to Corporate Social Liability A Socio-Legal Study of Corporate Liability in Global Value Chains
Anna Aseeva, National Research University Higher School of Economics, Moscow This book brings together the latest scholarly advances on corporate social responsibility, and, at the same time, addresses the pressing issue of corporate liability for harmful acts across the supply and production chains. It posits that corporate social liability is a set of legal duties and responsibilities of a corporation for harm-causing incidents, including the negative environmental, social and economic consequences of a company’s activities across its entire value chain. This is the first systematic attempt to critically assess the premises, dynamics, current state of play and likely future development of the concept and application of corporate social liability.

Company Laws of the EU A Handbook
Edited by Andrea Vicari, University of Milan & Alexander Schall, Leuphana Law School This book fills a gap in the process of confrontation between the disciplines, case laws and literature of the central EU member states. In particular it addresses the difficulty of finding sources for professionals explaining the rules and guidelines of corporate law in the different European states. The main features of the discipline of corporate law in Germany, England, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Romania and the Netherlands are illustrated. The objective of the work is not only to describe the main features of the discipline, but especially to highlight the most important critical profiles, and particularly those under the scrutiny of the case law and most studied (as problematic) by the doctrine.
