Description
Book SynopsisThe corporate mega-mergers of the 1980s and 1990s raise questions about the influence of such globalism on the development of civil society. This book maps the legal limits of corporate power in our democratic society and explores the role of the corporate judiciary in creating public policy.
Trade ReviewHis most innovative contribution is to fuse sociological theories of civil society with corporate law. * Social Control and Law *
Corporate Power in Civil Society is well-written, and it brims with interesting insights. Sciulli's careful attention to the broader civil context of corporations and his close attention to the cases he examines make him an excellent sleuth for uncovering the reasons for and the implications of judicial behavior. In drawing on sociological theories to inform corporate law, the book makes a refreshing and timely contribution. * Contemporary Sociology *
This book is a significant contribution to . . . broad political thought, one that should stimulate a great deal more. * New Political Science *
