In this book, Axel Schulte addresses the existence and nature of the genuine foundation law relationship between the founder and the legally capable foundation. The focus is on the founder's ability to take action against the foundation to revoke or refrain from a foundation resolution, considering a fundamental right to the foundation's existence in the event of failure of internal or external control mechanisms, if this endangers, threatens, or contradicts the objectively determined will of the founder. The author demonstrates the practical need for such intervention by the founder in "his" foundation and prepares the doctrinal basis for such action, independent of any statutory provisions. Furthermore, the author explains to what extent the founder's influence on the foundation has corporate law dimensions.
