  • access to private and public finance,
  • the business enterprise and social justice,
  • social enterprise; sustainability and business,
  • the role and purpose of company law and regulatory approaches,
  • the role of management and managers,
  • the progressive development of the joint stock corporation, its organisational and legal form, governance, rights and liabilities,
