International Insolvency and Finance Law (eBook, ePUB)

Legal Constants in Times of Crises

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Focusing on the Global Financial Crisis and the Covid-19 crisis, this book examines the discourse on risk and uncertainty in the markets through the lens of financial crises. Such crises represent a failure of the law to regulate and constitute the basis through which a new theory of legal constants can be introduced in comparative law.
