Resumen
- In the Napoleonian code tradition, French law provides the model for B-Corp-friendly company law, with no legal impediment to the development of such entities. But French law also contains on two other trends: social and solidarity economy, appeared in the nineteenth century and renewed in 2014, and since 2019 purpose enterprises, which corporate social responsibility engagement is legally labelled. All these forms differ but do not oppose each other and sometimes are mixed.
