Book Synopsis Corporate Governance and Managerial Reform in Japan by : D. Hugh Whittaker
Download or read book Corporate Governance and Managerial Reform in Japan written by D. Hugh Whittaker and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2009-10-29 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japanese corporate governance and managerial practice is at a critical juncture. At the start of the decade pressures mounted for Japan to move to a shareholder-value driven, 'Anglo-American' system of corporate governance. Subsequent changes, however, may be seen as an adjustment and renewal of the post-war model of the Japanese firm. In adapting to global corporate governance standards, Japanese managers have also been reshaping them according to their own agenda of reform and restructuring of decision-making processes. The board's role is seen in terms of strategic planning rather than monitoring, and external directors are viewed as advisers, not as representatives of the shareholders. Managers have adopted a variety of defences against hostile takeovers, including poison pills in some cases. Although shareholder influence is more extensive than it was, central aspects of the Japanese 'community firm' remain in place. The commitment to stable or 'lifetime' employment for a core of employees, although coming under severe pressure, is still an important point of reference for Japanese management. Corporate Governance and Managerial Reform in Japan is based on detailed and intensive field work in large Japanese companies and interviews with investors, civil servants, and policy makers in the period following the adoption of significant corporate law reforms in the early 2000s up to the months just before the global financial crisis of 2008. The Japanese experience suggests that there are limits to the global convergence of company law systems, and that the widespread association of Anglo-American practices with the 'modernization' of corporate governance has been misplaced. This conclusion is unlikely to be altered - it may be reinforced - by reactions to the financial crisis.

Book Synopsis The Transformation of the Japanese Commercial Code and Its Impact on the Japanese Economy by : Toshihiro Yoshida (M.B.A.)
Download or read book The Transformation of the Japanese Commercial Code and Its Impact on the Japanese Economy written by Toshihiro Yoshida (M.B.A.) and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legal system is an essential basis of the society and economy of every country, and it changes continually in accordance with national social and economic situations. The Japanese Commercial Code is no exception. One of the most significant and fundamental Japanese laws, it was enacted in 1899 as part of the modernization of Japanese society as the country moved away from a policy of seclusion followed by the old feudal government. The new Code was strongly affected by corporate laws in place at the time in Germany and France. However, as the balance of power in the world economy changed over the ensuing years, the Japanese Commercial Code and other corporate laws were influenced by American laws, and the nature of the Commercial Code was slowly transformed, especially following the Second World War and after the collapse of the so-called "bubble economy" in Japan. In this thesis, I discuss the history of fundamental Japanese laws, the steps and players in the legislative process, and present details about the introduction of the share exchange system, which stimulated many more mergers and acquisitions in Japan. Then I analyze the economic impact of new legal procedures for M&As, including the share exchange system, and identify possible directions for Japanese corporate laws in the future.
Book Synopsis Corporate Governance in Japan by : Masahiko Aoki
Download or read book Corporate Governance in Japan written by Masahiko Aoki and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debates regarding corporate governance have become increasingly important in Japan as the post-war model of bank-based, stakeholder-oriented corporate governance faces the new pressures associated with globalization and growing investor demands for shareholder value. Bringing together a group of leading scholars from economics, law, sociology and management studies, this book looks at how the Japanese approach to corporate governance and the firm have changed in the post-bubble era. The contributions offer a unique empirical exploration of why and how Japanese firms are reshaping their corporate governance arrangements, leading to greater diversity among firms and new 'hybrid' forms of corporate governance. The book concludes by looking at what effect these incremental but transformative changes may have on Japan's distinctive variety of capitalism.

Book Synopsis Japanese Business Law by : Gerald Paul McAlinn
Download or read book Japanese Business Law written by Gerald Paul McAlinn and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 780 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the and‘lost decadeand’ of the nineties, the progress of Japanese administrative and economic reform has been intense. Although some early critics characterized the reforms as and‘window dressing, and’ it is becoming clearer that systemic reform has taken hold and the new Japanese economy is picking up. This deeply knowledgeable book provides a penetrating analysis and expert evaluation of matters of crucial concern to business lawyers including corporate governance, contract law, business liabilities, intellectual property, media, employment, taxation, investment, the legal profession, the judiciary, and much more as they are developing and intersecting in Japan today. In the course of the detailed presentation, the contributors touch on such details of interest to those doing business in Japan as the following: status of foreign lawyers; mergers and acquisitions and leveraged buyouts; grounds for terminating contracts; real estate transactions; antimonopoly law and licensing guidelines; IT and e-commerce law; managing, disciplining, and terminating employees; occupational safety and health; labor union law; corporation income taxation; government programs offering low cost finance; consumer protection laws; and litigation and alternative dispute resolution. One of the most valuable benefits of the contributors' approach is the keen insight offered into the tatemae (outward appearance) well known to frustrate and mislead foreigners in almost any dealings with the Japanese.
Book Synopsis Modernization of Japan by : Gbingba Gbosoe
Download or read book Modernization of Japan written by Gbingba Gbosoe and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-09 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Japanese are a diligent people, constantly working to ensure institutional success. The Japanese have an innate ability to copy foreigners. In their effort to build a strong country, the Japanese sought knowledge from abroad; and perfected these learnings in order to effect rapid national development. In their quest for progress, the Japanese have cherished the trait of national self-reliance. Until the Jeiji Restoration, Japan had pursued a national policy of seclusion that forbade almost all contact with the outside world. The nineteenth century was one of exploration and imperialism for most of the world. The Japanese would not be left alone, merely because they wanted to pursue a national policy of autarchy. European powers began establishing commercial relations with Japan. In 1953, a commodore in the US Navy visited Japan with the aim of opening trade contacts. After years of negotiations, treaties were signed authorizing an opening of a few ports to foreign trade. Simultaneously, Japan embarked on a policy of expansion in China and Korea due to its need for fertile soil and natural resources. This policy led to war with China in and with Russia.
Book Synopsis Reforms of Japanese Corporate Law and Political Environment by : Hatsuru Morita
Download or read book Reforms of Japanese Corporate Law and Political Environment written by Hatsuru Morita and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate law shapes the fundamental business environment and affects various stakeholders such as shareholders, managers, employees, and creditors. Each stakeholder has an incentive to influence on the reform process of corporate law. The many corporate law reforms in Japan reflect its rapidly-changing business environment. It is important to understand the behavior of various stakeholders by examining the politics of the reform process of corporate law. This paper tries to provide an analysis of the changing political balance among various stakeholders of corporate law.Before 1997, the legal academics played a mitigating role in legislative process, thereby achieving the well-balanced development of Japanese corporate Law. In contrast, after 1997, the legislative process of Japanese corporate law has become more democratic: corporate managers, who are politically strong interest group, significantly influence corporate law reforms, while shareholders and creditors, who are politically silent, do not. And the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Justice do not have power and effective tools to resist the influence of corporate managers. However, it seems that politicians are trying to return to the middle road voluntarily. In the 2014 reform of Japanese corporate law, politicians did not simply follow the interest of corporate managers, but rather tried to achieve a balance among various stakeholders of corporate law. This change may be caused by the change of electoral rules for the House of Representatives.
Book Synopsis Strands of Modernization by : David B. Sicilia
Download or read book Strands of Modernization written by David B. Sicilia and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries saw extraordinary transfer and diffusion of industry- and transportation-related technology, and business methods. While most scholarship on nineteenth-century technology transfer beyond Europe and North America has focused on the West-to-East movement of artifacts, skills, and knowledge, Strands of Modernization considers the transfer of technology and business methods within East Asia in the period between approximately 1850 and 1920. Highlighting currents moving in multiple directions, contributors expand upon conventional notions of what qualifies as a "technology" or a "business practice," looking more broadly at skills, systems of technology, tacit knowledge, and the ideologies and other belief systems with which they interact. The core ambition driving Strands of Modernization is to illuminate processes of adaption, versus adoption, that occur when technology and business practices cross sociocultural boundaries.
