Philosophical Foundations of Fiduciary Law

Zusatztext This edited collection brings together a number of leading scholars, one might say an all-star cast, to consider an area of law which, in recent years, has become increasingly topical. The editors are also admirably ambitious for the book, believing that it will âset the agenda for philosophical study of fiduciary law for generations to comeâ. Only the passage of time can vindicate that claim; but the coverage and quality of the collection go a long way to justifying such an expectation. Informationen zum Autor Andrew Gold is a Professor at the DePaul University College of Law. His recent scholarship has focused on fiduciary theory, contract theory, civil recourse theory, and corrective justice.
