Principle of European Company Law

摘要

This is the first book in Japanese to explore the entire structure of company law within the European Union (EU), written by Eiji Takahashi, a leading scholar in German and EU company law. It is composed of five parts: 'Freedom of Establishment' and 'Free Movement of Capital' in the EU internal market (Parts 1 and 2), 'European Company Law Directives', which shows the development of harmonisation of the company law system by EU directives (Part 3), 'European Model Companies Act', which works as 'soft law' not just for EU member states but also for non-members (Part 4), and 'Supra-national Company Form', which includes 'Socieatas Europaea' (Part 5).
