Publisher Description: This book offers a succinct framework for analysing and answering corporate attribution. Taking a broad private law perspective, it determines how companies are held accountable under tort law, contract law and unjust enrichment. It argues that attribution is best understood as turning on the same feature: the allocation of the company's powers to act to human individuals. By taking this approach, it allows for a much greater and clearer understanding of attribution. Looking at the question from the broad expanse of the common law, this book will be of interest to lawyers in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore. |
