- New Working Paper Uploaded on
14th March 2008
"Lawyers, Law Firms and the Stabilization of Transnational Business" is a new paper by Fabian Sosa, my colleague in Bremen, and me. It looks at the role of lawyers, in large and medium-sized law firms, in cross-border transactions through the lens of Luhmann and Gilson. It's under "In Progress" here and also on my SSRN page. Comments are very welcome. The paper is coming out in the Northwestern Journal of International Law and Business this year.
