Summary
"[This book] provides readers with the basic knowledge of legal concepts of Brazilian law...Brazil's markets have flourished as courts, legislators and sophisticated legal elite have continuously adapted foreign rules to the country's realities, giving Brazil an edge over his counterparts in the world stage...Sixteen...Brazilian authorities describe and analyse the laws, regulations and jurisprudence in all the major fields of legal practice and administration, paying detailed attention to such elements as the following: the multiple interwoven sources of Brazilian law; administrative agencies and procedures; Brazil's unique 'social function of contracts' principle; corporate and related structures; the new Brazilian civil procedure code and arbitration rules; constitutional principles and judicial review; fiduciary transfers and insolvency issues; complex rules of criminal procedure; mandatory succession rules; labour law compliance; private international law; and taxation."-- Back cover.
