| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to clarify the significance of the concept of "contrat de societe", which is one of the basic concepts of French Company Law. Historically, the starting point of a company under French law was the partnership, and company law rules were primarily based on rules specific to partnerships and contracts. Relying solely on a contract-based framework rapidly showed its limits, and that finding can be confirmed through consideration of the French PACTE Act enacted in 2019. However, it is important to note that the "contrat de societe" and the concepts based on it give solutions to some of the most modern issues debated in corporate law. The points discussed are also closely related to sustainable governance issues, which are also attracting attention in Japan. This study succeeded in presenting a possible line of approach to future reforms.

本研究により、フランス法における会社の法的性質（とりわけ株式会社の法的性質）に関する理解の変遷をたどることができた。サステナブル・ガバナンス、ESGに関連する問題が注目されるなか、フランスの例の検討は、わが国において模索される株式会社のあるべき経営方法について、コーポレートガバナンスコードなどのソフトローだけではなく、ハードローによる制度改革の方法と挑戦を示すとともに、その課題を浮き彫りにした。
