Corporate Opportunities
A Law and Economics Analysis
Marco Claudio Corradi, Stockholm University,
Sweden
This book provides a comparative analysis of
corporate opportunities doctrines. It looks at both
common law and civil law rules and relies on a law
and economics approach. The book broadens the
conventional view on corporate opportunities; it explores several
jurisdictions and their economic and industrial environments, whilst
also assessing the impact of globalisation on legal reform.
The book takes the academic debate on corporate opportunities
doctrines to a whole new level and will be of interest to corporate
legal scholars and research students in various jurisdictions,
practitioners working in multinational contexts, and financial
economics experts.

Truth and Transitional Justice
Localising the international legal
framework in Muslim majority legal
systems
Alice Panepinto, Queen’s University, Belfast
The Arab uprisings and new and old conflicts in
the Middle East and North Africa have sparked an
interest in transitional justice in Muslim-majority
legal systems. This book offers a critical analysis of the relocation
of transitional justice from the international paradigm to the legal
systems of Muslim-majority societies in light of the inherently
pluralistic realities of these contexts. It investigates synergies between
international law and Islamic law. The book will provide a useful
reference for scholars, practitioners and policymakers seeking to
analyse and design transitional truth-seeking processes in the legal
systems of Muslim-majority societies.
