Book Synopsis Cases and Materials on Corporations by : John C. Coffee
Download or read book Cases and Materials on Corporations written by John C. Coffee and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 1429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned for its richness, depth, and authorship, Cases and Materials on Corporations offers broad coverage of both public and closely held corporations. A powerful introductory chapter sets out the defining characteristics of a corporation. A thematic framework frames corporate law in terms of the corporation’s responsibilities to its employees, its investors, and society. New to the Ninth Edition: The introductory Chapter recognizes that issues of race and systemic discrimination have dominated recent headlines and political discourse. This has re-focused attention on the long-standing debate between proponents of the dominant shareholders primacy model of corporate governance and proponents of a more stakeholder-oriented model. Without taking sides on this issue, this Chapter notes that this debate has continued throughout American legal history, and it focuses on recent efforts by some states and Nasdaq to require greater diversity (both in terms of race and gender) on corporate boards. Current data is provided. In addition, this Chapter adds a new section to introduce the “public benefit corporation,” a new corporate form that is a hybrid of a profit-making corporation and a not-for-profit entity now recognized by a majority of the states. New material on the emerging line of good faith cases in the context of director oversight where a corporation is subject to “mission critical” regulation. This new line of cases opens up potential avenues to assign monetary liability to directors for failure to manage corporate risks. New Supreme Court decisions (including Lorenzo and Omnicare) are assessed, and the continuing struggle to define insider trading is reviewed. The chapter on shareholder voting and proxy gives special attention to recent efforts by activist hedge funds to influence and constrain corporate management. The revised chapter on takeovers takes up the legal rules governing friendly and unfriendly acquisitions. The chapter tracks the unique experience of Delaware law over this period: an ongoing and openly—but respectful–disagreement between the Delaware Chancery Court and the Delaware Supreme Court about the allocation of authority between the board of directors and shareholders. The chapter also examines the new texture of the takeover market where activists play a central role. Professors and students will benefit from: Richness and depth: A range of thoroughly developed topics allows instructors to delve into topics with as much depth as they wish. The text is strong in material on both public and closely held corporations. Traditional casebook pedagogy: Text notes, statutory material, excerpted commentary, problems, questions, and edited cases. Strong introductory chapter: Sets out the defining characteristics of a corporation: limited liability, perpetual existence, free transferability, and centralized management. Thematic framework: Examines corporate law in the context of the corporation’s responsibilities to its own constituents and investors, as well as to society.
Book Synopsis We the Corporations: How American Businesses Won Their Civil Rights by : Adam Winkler
Download or read book We the Corporations: How American Businesses Won Their Civil Rights written by Adam Winkler and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark exposé and “deeply engaging legal history” of one of the most successful, yet least known, civil rights movements in American history (Washington Post). In a revelatory work praised as “excellent and timely” (New York Times Book Review, front page), Adam Winkler, author of Gunfight, once again makes sense of our fraught constitutional history in this incisive portrait of how American businesses seized political power, won “equal rights,” and transformed the Constitution to serve big business. Uncovering the deep roots of Citizens United, he repositions that controversial 2010 Supreme Court decision as the capstone of a centuries-old battle for corporate personhood. “Tackling a topic that ought to be at the heart of political debate” (Economist), Winkler surveys more than four hundred years of diverse cases—and the contributions of such legendary legal figures as Daniel Webster, Roger Taney, Lewis Powell, and even Thurgood Marshall—to reveal that “the history of corporate rights is replete with ironies” (Wall Street Journal). We the Corporations is an uncompromising work of history to be read for years to come.

Book Synopsis Public Property and Private Power by : Hendrik Hartog
Download or read book Public Property and Private Power written by Hendrik Hartog and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using New York City's institutional history as a case study, Hendrik Hartog argues that the emergence of modern local government law was made possible by a deep transformation of political values. During the century and a half covered by this study, New York City changed from a largely autonomous corporate government shaped primarily by its property holdings to a public municipal corporation under the direct authority of the state legislature. By the early nineteenth century, a corporation that had once governed through is personal, private estate had become one dedicated to using legislatively delegated power to provide goods and services for the expanding city. This book combines doctrinal analysis with detailed pictures of changing governmental practices, ranging from the laying out of streets and port facilities to the regulation of cemeteries and pigs. These pictures reveal the complex and only partially articulated choices made by city and state officials which directed New York City's transformation into an agency of a centralized state, the model of a modern municipal corporation. To an extent, the story told is one of separation and loss. Hartog describes our separation from a legal world of local autonomy where property rights legitimized community self-determination, where a city corporation might possess its government as well as its real estate. Yet the story is also about the creativity and ingenuity with which the new urban legal order imposed their radical and animating view that public power existed to improve the material lives of Americans. Based on extensive research in the New York City archives and minutes of the Common Council, as well as the many court cases that ultimately determined New York's status as a city corporation, Public Property and Private Power will be of interest to legal historians, urbanists, and those interested in the development of New York City.

Book Synopsis Sustaining High Performing Public Enterprises by : Silver Mugisha
Download or read book Sustaining High Performing Public Enterprises written by Silver Mugisha and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustaining High Performing Public Enterprises presents steps taken by National Water and Sewerage Corporation of Uganda, a typical public enterprise, to sustain a high performance momentum after over 15 years of successful utility reforms. Specifically, the author pinpoints key achievements during the period 2013–2018 including growth in geographical coverage from 23 to 240 towns, increase in connections from 310,000 to about 600,000; revenues growing more than three times and network growth improving from 80kms per year to over 2000kms per year. The concept of new public management (NPM) is used to set the scene for a case description of various initiatives and innovations implemented. A balanced scorecard framework is used to characterize the various activities. The book highlights a shift from over-emphasis on positive cash-flows alone to a balanced approach to ‘water for all’ citizens. The need to balance technical work and political aspirations is highlighted. Also featured is the nexus between utility operations and environmental protection to ensure sustainable water supply. The cardinal role of aligning staff needs to organizational needs and working for win-win solutions is also highlighted. Sustaining High Performing Public Enterprises presents strong lessons and conclusions for utility leaders and policy makers intending to reform their utilities to create value for citizens. It is also of value to academicians and researchers for scholarly studies in water and sanitation governance and management.
Book Synopsis How to Improve the Financial Oversight of Public Corporations by : Mr.Richard I Allen
Download or read book How to Improve the Financial Oversight of Public Corporations written by Mr.Richard I Allen and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many studies have highlighted how failures of public corporations (otherwise known as state-owned enterprises) can result in huge economic and fiscal costs. To contain the risks associated with these costs, an effective regime for the financial supervision and oversight of public corporations should be put in place. This note discusses the legal, institutional, and procedural arrangements that governments need to oversee the financial operations of their public corporations, ensure accountability for their performance, and manage the fiscal risks they present. In particular, it recommends that governments should focus their surveillance on public corporations that are large in relation to the economy, create fiscal risks, are not profitable, are unstable financially, or are heavily dependent on government subsidies or guarantees.
