Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed at a historical understanding of how traditional Chinese society dealt with the formation of what might be called corporations and their mergers/acquisitions,and to study how such an insight might help us understand certain problems arising in corporate mergers and acquisitions in China today. Through a collaboration between a legal historian, a practicing lawyer of cross-border mergers and acquisitions in China, and a legal scholar specialising in corporate law, we first reconstructed the social processes whereby lineages and territorial organisations were formed,especially the institutions of property and credit that underpinned the formation and daily practices of these groups. We went on to present an understanding of certain corporate problems revolving around the tension between long-term social relationships and the need for clear-cut property rights, and applying such understanding to contemporary institutions of shareholding and corporate governance.
