Tuesday, 20 February 2018 - 1.00pm
Location: 
Faculty of Law, B16

Speaker: Dr Michael Galanis (Senior Lecturer in Company Law, University of Manchester)

In this seminar, Dr Galanis will proceed from the starting point that the corporation can only exist as a socially embedded institution. On this basis, he will claim that all scholarship treating corporate governance reform as primarily a distributional problem is necessarily associated with social determinism and heteronomy. Dr Galanis will explain how the corporate governance debate is and ought to be much more complex and essentially part of, and dependent on, a deeply reflexive exercise concerning social and individual identity. He will argue that, if we ever decide to engage sincerely in this process, we may find that the corporation (at least as we now know it) has no guaranteed place in society.

3CL runs the 3CL Travers Smith Lunchtime Seminar Series, featuring leading academics from the Faculty, and high-profile practitioners. For more information on past events including recordings, please refer to the Centre activities page.

For all seminars in B16, lunch will be available beforehand in the Basement atrium area. There is no charge for lunch or to attend the seminar.
