Em um estado democrático de direito, calcado nos princípios liberais, não se pode descurar da tutela da manutenção do setor empresarial, que influi em diversas esferas da sociedade. Por conta disso, o Estado elaborou mecanismos judiciais e extrajudiciais de recuperação de empresas. No Brasil, em 2020, a Lei de Recuperação Judicial e Falências foi reformulada por meio da Lei no 14.112/2020. Nesse sentido, esta obra se baseia na leitura e na hermenêutica dos textos legais para oferecer um panorama atualizado a propósito das recuperações judiciais e extrajudiciais no contexto brasileiro.

What is the contribution of General System Theory to the macro-level understanding of economic, social and technological changes in our epoch from a multidimensional perspective? What is the contribution of Social Action Theory on a micro-scale? Can complex scenario analyses, although based upon uncertainty and unpredictability, offer a viable toolkit for managing these transformations? This book contains twelve chapters, dealing with these questions from various points of view. It brings together essays in sociology, economics, law and humanities to provide as complete a representation as possible of the current global situation. The theoretical framework adopted here is that the systemic approach provides the most effective tool both for understanding social phenomena and elaborating policy-modelling strategies for decision makers that are supposed to tackle social criticalities.

This collection of essays explores the different ways the insights from complexity theory can be applied to law. Complexity theory – a variant of systems theory – views law as an emergent, complex, self-organising system comprised of an interactive network of actors and systems that operate with no overall guiding hand, giving rise to complex, collective behaviour in law communications and actions. Addressing such issues as the unpredictability of legal systems, the ability of legal systems to adapt to changes in society, the importance of context, and the nature of law, the essays look to the implications of a complexity theory analysis for the study of public policy and administrative law, international law and human rights, regulatory practices in business and finance, and the practice of law and legal ethics. These are areas where law, which craves certainty, encounters unending, irresolvable complexity. This collection shows the many ways complexity theory thinking can reshape and clarify our understanding of the various problems relating to the theory and practice of law.
