Peter Underwood: Corporate Group Legitimacy Book Launch

Corporate groups are a prominent commercial feature of many jurisdictions and present unique challenges. The book argues that when analysed through the lens of corporate social responsibility, a legitimacy deficiency emerges. This arises from a lack of historical debate, diluted control mechanisms, and inflated growth, utilising unique features of the corporate group. It explores how the magnified power of the corporate group presents acute challenges for corporate legitimacy.

This event will provide some insights into key elements of the book, provide an opportunity to discuss the book, and offer commentary by Professor Craig Elliffe, Professor Jodi Gardner and Professor Susan Watson.
