Recenzii

'This fascinating and timely book provides a chilling illustration of how tightly intertwined the global climate emergency is with the core dynamics of corporate governance and shareholder capitalism. It highlights how the traditionally autonomous fields of corporate law, environmental regulation and human rights can no longer safely be confined to their own distinct discursive spaces. As lawyers, scholars, and policymakers in these fields we must all become as multi-faceted in our work as Dr Lisa Benjamin is. No less than the very future of our planet depends on it.' Marc Moore, Professor of Corporate/Financial Law, UCL Faculty of Laws, University College London
'I gladly endorse Lisa Benjamin's Companies and Change: Theory and Law in the United Kingdom. Lisa's grasp of the science of climate change and the intertwined legal complexity of corporate governance is formidable. This volume is a vital tool allowing policy makers to understand the structures of companies and how the economic and legal structures of companies can be reformed, in domestic jurisdictions and globally. This monograph is pellucid, it challenges the dominant discourse of profit maximisation in companies and Multinational Enterprises leading to the climate emergency. The books advocates a range of solutions including different models for business and involving financiers to invest their capital into renewable technology. The book is passionate and simultaneously academically rigorous. A wonderful piece of writing.' Janet Dine, Professor of International Economic Development Law, Queen Mary University of London
