Abstract

We are delighted to publish the papers from the symposium on social justice sponsored by the Center on Corporations, Law & Society of the Seattle University Law School. These papers address an impressive array of business and social issues and provide a penetrating assessment of whether existing legal doctrines and approaches promote social justice. True to the theme of this series, the authors frequently utilize economic analysis, but they also point out where they think it does not apply or needs to incorporate new developments. The exceptional quality of this volume reflects the distinguished credentials of the authors, the extraordinary efforts of the Special Editor, Dana Gold, the former director of the Center, and the support of the Dean of Seattle University Law School, Kellye Testy.
