Ownership of companies: The emergence and transformation of social corporate constitutions (B02+)

Subject Area Principles of Law and Jurisprudence
Term since 2021
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 424638267
 
The project assumes that the legal systems of most welfare states have given rise to certain forms of social corpo¬rate constitutions, which limit the property rights of corporate shareholders in order to protect workers (e.g., by granting them co-determination, ensuring that corporate decisions are governed by collective agreements, and giving them equity participation). It draws a functional comparison of the legal systems of the United Kingdom, United States, Germany and France, exploring the legal structures that underpin workers’ influence on corporate decision-making processes.
