This text compares the corporate governance structures of the US quoted company and its European equivalent and the role which employees as non-shareholding stakeholders hold within those structures. It focuses on the incidents of ownership normally exercised by stakeholders and raises questions regarding different responses to the issue of mandated labour market regulation on both sides of the Atlantic. The text considers theoretical and practical issues raised in this context.
[The book] makes an important contribution to the corporate governance debate both in the United States and the EC with particular emphasis on employees as the focus of attention in respect of social policies. -- Dr Saleem Sheikh * International Company Commercial Law Review *
