About this book
Far from regarding the law as supreme, corporations approach law as an element of executive thought and action aimed at optimizing competitiveness.
The objective of this book is to identify, explore and define corporate legal strategies that seek advantage in the opportunities revealed when the Law is perceived as a resource to be mobilized and aligned with the firm’s business and economic agendas.
