This book collects the proceedings of a workshop on the late medieval
and early modern history of companies and company law in Europe which
was organized in 2012 by the Louvain research unit of Roman Law and
Legal History. In total, seven original and innovative articles
resulted from the fruitful confrontation of a younger generation's work
and the critical scrutiny of some viri sapientes in the field of
research at hand. Two of the articles focus on the history of so-called
state-regulated companies in England and France, while four address
various aspects of general private partnerships and early modern
corporate practices as could be observed in the Southern and Northern
Netherlands during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. All of the
articles are based on original research efforts and present a variety of
new insights on the topic at hand.
