Corporate governance: the main issues

Abstract

We are pleased to present you with this book which is the effect of the international cooperation between the Research Group of the Commercial Law acting at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Silesia and representatives of foreign university departments of private law from Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Ukraine. The “Evolution of Private Law – New Challenges” continues the collective publications issued in 2014, 2015 and 2017. Private law is not a subject that currently suffers from a scarcity of interesting and great scientific publications, but our first thought was to create some space for authors from different European countries to present new visions and development paths for that area of law. This year’s edition is dedicated to the new challenges facing national legislators regarding the adjustment of their legal systems to some international regulations on private law. A broad range of authors – academics from the above mentioned countries – substantially contribute to strengthen and widen the comparative law research. This publication is dedicated primarily to civil law academics, but it also addresses the issues relevant to the legal practice. Most of the articles can be useful in the didactic process at law studies as well.
