The corporation in the nineteenth-century American imagination

In The Corporation in the Nineteenth-Century American Imagination, Stefanie Muller undertakes a legal, cultural, and literary perambulation of the United States with the aim of examining how the corporation was reinvented, transformed, and reimagined during the 19th-century. The book is an accurate fresco of the socio-legal developments and controversies surrounding the corporate form in the legal and popular imaginary of the nascent American republic.
