Another Pistor Banger
5 stars
This book continues Katharina's tradition of synthesizing the core of international legal regimes to provide an incisive, clear-eyed analysis of the entanglement of law and economic issues, here looking at the system of capitalism itself. There's less on the "how to transform it" side, but honestly that's not what I want out of a book like this anyway. If you want to understand the legal framework that underpins our current global economic system and the perverse incentives and tradeoffs at its heart, this is the book for you. Highly recommend
