Business Organizations: Practice, Theory and Emerging Challenges, 3rd Edition is more than just a comprehensive guide to the fundamentals of business structures, including partnerships and corporations. It highlights diverse perspectives on the objectives of business organizations, the roles and responsibilities of their officers and directors, and the functions of these organizations in Canadian society. This approach strives to promote a deep understanding of business organizations and of the ways in which legal and policy decisions impact their function.

This thoroughly updated and reorganized edition introduces an entirely new chapter on the principles of agency, along with a fresh examination of Indigenous business structures, including commentary on the challenges of imposing organizational structures conceived outside indigenous communities to enterprises operating within them. The casebook features expert insights from three new authors: Frankie Young, Peer Zumbansen, and Barnali Choudhury.

Drawing on the perspectives of leading Canadian business scholars, this casebook is designed to be an accessible classroom and research resource. It is a must-have addition to the faculty, firm, or private library of anyone interested in the various dimensions of the law of business organizations.
