Overview

This pathbreaking work examines the on-going efforts of lawyers and allied professionals to construct, police and redefine their respective boundaries. It focuses on the leading corporate practitioners, notably the newly emerging large multinational firms of lawyers and accountants, and on the ways in which they are reshaping the roles and structure of their respective fields. It is these new mega firms of professionals who are playing an increasingly important role in the construction of legal regulation, both national and international. By focusing on this new type of organization and their impact on their respective professional fields it becomes possible to examine anew the relationship between the professions, the economy and state regulation.
