By proposing alternative uses for the tools of law thatshape capitalism, the book also makes proposals for dealing with these matters.\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2020-09-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030241841\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-24182-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 239\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47694572748940,"sku":"9783030241841","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030241841_4a08a27b-943e-4d13-b98e-6f3aa401c34f.jpg?v=1776775161","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783030241841","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
