Description
Summary:Legal studies in business has long been relegated to the second tier among fields of business study. With law and business increasingly overlapping and intertwining, the author of this study sought to investigate whether legal studies in business deserves first-tier status among business disciplines. The author discusses the growing importance of law to business, real and perceived rationales for business law's relegated status, and the discovery of a significant shortfall within the discipline. He offers suggestions that may allow the discipline to reach its full promise. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
