    Default Business law

    In business law, how would you translate "contrato social" and "objecto social." These terms are used to apply to a company.

    Thanks

    James

    Cool

    Hola,
    por objeto social, "corporate purpose"; por contrato social, "articles of agreement" o "partnership agreement".
    Espero te sirva!

    I would translate 'contrato social' literally into 'social contract'. It is the theory that the governed are implicitly entering into a contract to follow the state's law when they are born.

    I believe Articles of agreement & Partnership agreement are terms used for explicit contracts.

    You can compare two wiki pages and see they talk of the same concept:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_contract
