About SCCL:s publications
Researchers affiliated with SCCL publish their research results in a large number of articles and research reports. The ambition is that as much as possible of what is published by these researchers and by speakers at seminars and conferences organised by SCCL will also be available in open access at SCCL (https://publications.sccl.se). However, depending on circumstances and agreements with publishers, this may not take place until some time after the original publication.
With the consent of authors and other holders of rights, we have initially digitalised and made available most of what has been published in the books published by SCCL since 2008. This initially comprises 256 articles written by researchers affiliated with SCCL. Gradually the number of digitally available articles will increase.
The search function in the menu above makes it possible to search for articles both in free text and by author or by the book in which the article was originally published. On the page “Authors” there is a list of all the authors of the articles that have been digitalised and on the page “Books” there is a list of the books that have been digitalised.
In addition to digitalisation and making research results available on the website, SCCL will continue to publish books in SCCL’s publication series. This includes the SCCL Yearbook, anthologies with contributions to specific conferences and separate publications. Together with the publication series, SCCL also publishes festschrifts related to persons active at SCCL.
SCCL has an extensive library on its own premises, which was started through a donation from the late Professor Jan Hellner and through the takeover of the Library of the Institute for Company and Securities Law. The library has since been expanded through various extensive donations.
Since 2024, the Axel Ax:son Johnson Institute for Maritime and Other Transport Law is included as a research panel at SCCL https://sccl.se/forskningsavdelningar/. The Institute for Maritime Law has an extensive physical library located on SCCL’s premises, as well as a digital library available on its website https://www.sjorattsbiblioteket.se/om-institutet.
Current Issue
This book is the result of a one-year post-doctoral research project in company
law that has been made possible through the Sven Unger Company Law
Scholarship funded by the law firm Mannheimer Swartling. The research
has been conducted in cooperation with the Swedish Corporate Governance
Institute at Stockholm Centre for Commercial Law, Stockholm University.
I would like to thank the scholarship award committee for serving as a
reference group for the research project, which consisted of Supreme Court
Justice Svante O. Johansson (chair), Professor Rolf Skog (University of
Gothenburg), Professor Niklas Arvidsson (Lund University), Senior Adviser
Eva Hägg (Mannheimer Swartling), Partner Patrik Marcelius (Mannheimer
Swartling) and Senior Adviser André Andersson (Mannheimer Swartling).
Thank you all for your contributions and providing invaluable comments
on my work. I would also like to express my gratitude to Associate Professor
Erik Lidman (Swedish Corporate Governance Institute), for providing
enlightening guidance and support throughout this project. Special thanks
are also due to Partner and Adjunct Professor Carl Svernlöv (Baker McKenzie
and Stockholm University) who has provided very helpful comments and
suggestions on the manuscript. Thank you also to Emil Heijnes stiftelse för
rättsvetenskaplig forskning for funding the printing of the book.
