New England Law Review On Remand's Podcast

On our latest podcast, we were joined by contributors to the On Remand inaugural Online Symposium, which focuses on the Market Basket saga. Dean Eric Gouvin, who is Dean of Western New England University School of Law, discusses his contribution to the symposium, titled, “What's Law Go to Do with It? An Essay About the Balance of Power in Corporate Governance Between Officers, Directors, and Shareholders.” We were also joined by New England Law | Boston Professor Eric Lustig, who is the director of the law school’s Center for Business Law, and whose contributions to the symposium include both a Foreword and a detailed background of the saga, and a piece co-authored by New England Law | Boston Professor Emeritus Susan Finneran: “The ‘Close Corporation’ Legacy of the Demoulas / Market Basket Saga: A Case Against Type?” Our third guest is New England Law | Boston Professor Gary Bishop, who contributed to our online symposium with a review of the book, “We Are Market Basket: The Story of the Unlikely Grassroots Movement That Saved a Beloved Business,” by Daniel Korschun and Grant Welker.
