A concise, practical approach to teaching corporations law
This value pack contains Corporations Law: Concepts, Cases and Culture textbook and workbook.
Corporations Law: Concepts, Cases and Culture contains a student-focused structure of chapters which focus on individual topics relevant to the study of corporate law, with focus on the law degree. Designed flexibly for a one semester course or a shorter block model course, it takes a modular approach, providing flexibility in how to deliver the content. This contemporary style takes a practical approach, with an emphasis on skills development, so students can understand the basic principles and learn the key elements of contemporary corporate law.
Corporations Law: Concepts, Cases, and Culture examines the three distinct and overlapping areas relating to corporate law:
- Concepts explores the main concepts and theories behind the law, rules and principles relevant to companies.
- Cases focuses on key case law underpinning the corporation and provides an insight into how modern company law has developed.
- Culture examines the corporate context with a focus on corporate governance and regulation, and how cultural shortcomings can lead to corporate misconduct.
The complementary write-in workbook provides targeted exercises to allow students to develop strong practical skills. It takes a scaffolded approach, starting with easy activities and building to more complex tasks within chapters, and as the book progresses. These activities can be used in tutorials or for student ‘at-home’ self-assessment.
