ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses the legal optimization of distribution structures, i.e. improving distribution structures not only from a general legal adjustment perspective but also from the substantive optimization perspective with a view to efficiently solving distribution problems. The optimization of distribution structures, in particular the specific distribution systems and the relevant distribution powers, pertains directly to legal adjustment. Various distribution problems that are caused by unreasonable distribution structures call for the adjustment of distribution structures; from the legal perspective, the cause for distribution problems is mainly the unreasonable allocation of revenue distribution rights. The chapter also discusses specific distribution systems and diversified legal adjustments of the distribution structures as it reveals the particularity of economic law’s regulation. Initial distribution focuses on the contribution of various factors in the market, places greater emphasis on efficiency, and less on fairness thereby making it difficult to solve problems such as the widening revenue gap.
