Koen Byttebier holds a law degree (University of Ghent, 1989) and a doctoral degree obtained with a dissertation on hostile takeovers (University of Ghent, 1992). In 1992, he was appointed as a postdoctoral researcher (FWO) at the University of Ghent, before joining the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) in 1994. Presently, he is a full Professor of Law (holding the degree of ‘Ordinary Professor’) in the Department of Private and Economic Law, VUB.Koen Byttebier is the author of more than 30 research monographs and of numerous articles. He speaks regularly at national and international conferences. In his capacity as a (part-time) practicing lawyer, he has been consulted by both the Belgian Federal Government and the Flemish Government, for which he has prepared and drafted a wide variety of new legislation, amongst which the Belgian Code of Economic Law, in addition to accomplishing some major restructuring operations.As of 2014, Koen Byttebier has published a variety of major international publications. He increasingly focused on research questioning the foundations of capitalism and began urging for a drastically different approach to the socioeconomic order. This paved the way to groundbreaking English-language research in this field, with, meanwhile, five English-language research monographs, published by Springer and VUBPRESS, in addition to publications in journals and referee books and invitations to various lectures. His 2017 monography Towards a New International Monetary Order implied an important breakthrough in this research, followed by various other English research monographs.
