Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.
With contributions from world-leading experts on cutting-edge topics at the interface of corporate law and environmental law, this timely Research Agenda explores key concepts and emerging themes within this nascent field.
Incorporating a broad range of perspectives, backgrounds and methodological approaches, this Research Agenda outlines entry points for research on the legal tools needed to address the immense and urgent environmental threat the planet faces. Chapters investigate how corporate legal structures might be surmounted to instil behavioural change within enterprises, accountability to stakeholders increased through regulatory intervention and decision-making of business leaders aligned more closely with environmental priorities. Analysing the complex regulatory conflicts that sit at the heart of corporate environmental law, expert contributors posit innovative solutions and clear pathways for future research.
Students and scholars interested in company law, corporate governance, corporate insolvency law and environmental law and policy will find the ideas and issues this Research Agenda explores invaluable. Its astute and practical insights will also be of interest to legislators, regulators and policymakers.
