Proactive Law in a business Environment

Description
This book assembles articles on what could be called an alternative way of legal thinking, known in Scandinavia as the proactive approach to law. Besides a general overview of proactive law, the contributions in this book includes topics such as legal risk management, strategic contracting, pre-contractual negotiation, collaborative contracts, iterative contracts, and selective distribution. One of the central concerns in proactive law is to include legal considerations in the managerial process by bringing in business-oriented legal advice, and generally speaking engage in cross-professional and interdisciplinary collaboration.
