Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oranburg's Corporate Law Compendium: Stockholder Rights helps students learn the doctrine and practice of stockholder rights and their effectuation. It is designed to accompany graduate-level coursework in corporate law. This compendium has three modules corresponding with the primary stockholder rights: voting rights, suing management, and selling shares. Module One deals with corporate governance as it relates to stockholder voting rights. This includes the basics of stockholder voting, stockholder voting rights in fundamental transactions, stockholder rights to initiate corporate action, board responses to stockholder initiatives, stockholder information rights, and public stockholder activism. Module Two deals with the fiduciary duties that directors and officers owe to stockholders and stockholders' rights to sue to when these duties are breached. This includes director's substantive duties of care, oversight, and loyalty, and the procedural effectuation of those duties through stockholder direct and derivative litigation. These triumvirate duties make directors liable to the corporation or its stockholders when the board does not act with sufficient process, where it fail to set up compliance monitoring system, or where directors have a conflict of interest. While director liability is limited by the business judgment rule, exculpation, indemnification, and insurance, stockholders can sue or cause the corporation to sue directors for violation of these duties in direct or derivative actions.Module three deals with stock markets and the rights of stockholder to sell their shares. This includes a basic overview of securities regulations, securities markets, securities fraud, and insider trading. While this module is mainly about public stock markets, it also alludes to private stock transaction.This compendium assumes that students have developed a basic working knowledge of corporations through other coursework, such as the classes I teach on Corporations & Society and Corporations & Entrepreneurship. I recommend learning those basics before attempting to tackle the information in this class. Additionally, I recommend that students who want to round out their understanding of business associations should also learn about Agency & Authority and Piercing the Corporate Veil, which I also teach in other courses.Students who have masted the basics of corporations and understand stockholder rights as covered in this course will be prepared for advanced coursework in securities regulation, venture capital financial, mergers & acquisitions, corporate governance, business planning, and other related topics.I hope that this compendium helps you enjoy learning about corporate law!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compendium accompanies a course of study in shareholder rights under corporate law. Stockholders have three core rights: vote, sue, and sell. Stockholders can vote for new management if the current administration is not maximizing stockholder interests. Stockholders can sue managers for violating certain fiduciary duties. And stockholders can sell their stock to someone else if they believe that their money could be better invested elsewhere. These three rights are meant to discipline management, who does not want to be fired, sued, or deprived of capital. Accordingly, this compendium has three modules.Module One deals with corporate governance as it relates to stockholder voting rights. This includes the basics of stockholder voting, stockholder voting rights in fundamental transactions, stockholder rights to initiate corporate action, board responses to stockholder initiatives, stockholder information rights, and public stockholder activism. Module Two deals with the fiduciary duties that directors and officers owe to stockholders and stockholders' rights to sue to when these duties are breached.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This controversial book presents a powerful argument for the repeal of anti-discrimination laws within the workplace. These laws--frequently justified as a means to protect individuals from race, sex, age, and disability discrimination--have been widely accepted by liberals and conservatives alike since the passing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and are today deeply ingrained in our legal culture. Richard Epstein demonstrates that these laws set one group against another, impose limits on freedom of choice, undermine standards of merit and achievement, unleash bureaucratic excesses, mandate inefficient employment practices, and cause far more invidious discrimination than they prevent. Epstein urges a return to the common law principles of individual autonomy that permit all persons to improve their position through trade, contract, and bargain, free of government constraint. He advances both theoretical and empirical arguments to show that competitive markets outperform the current system of centralized control over labor markets. Forbidden Grounds has a broad philosophical, economic, and historical sweep. Epstein offers novel explanations for the rational use of discrimination, and he tests his theory against a historical backdrop that runs from the early Supreme Court decisions, such as Plessy v. Ferguson which legitimated Jim Crow, through the current controversies over race-norming and the 1991 Civil Rights Act. His discussion of sex discrimination contains a detailed examination of the laws on occupational qualifications, pensions, pregnancy, and sexual harassment. He also explains how the case for affirmative action is strengthened by the repeal of employment discrimination laws. He concludes the book by looking at the recent controversies regarding age and disability discrimination. Forbidden Grounds will capture the attention of lawyers, social scientists, policymakers, and employers, as well as all persons interested in the administration of this major

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the federalization of corporate governance in the United States from both historical and contemporary perspectives. Although the states traditionally have regulated the sphere of corporate governance - encompassing the relations among and between the subject corporation, its directors, its officers, its stockholders, and other stakeholders - federal law today impacts the governance of publicly-traded companies to a greater degree than ever before in U.S. history. This book discusses the evolution and development of corporate governance from a federal law perspective from the commencement of the twentieth century to the present. It examines the tension between state company law and federal law, analyzes the federal historical developments, explains the ramifications of the federal legislation enacted during the past two decades, and recommends corrective measures that should be implemented. The book accordingly provides an original, historical, and contemporary analysis of the federalization of corporate governance - a subject that impacts this country's economic well-being in a very fundamental way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social enterprises represent a new kind of venture, dedicated to pursuing profits for owners and benefits for society. Social Enterprise Law provides tools that will allow them to raise the capital they need to flourish. Social Enterprise Law weaves innovation in contract and corporate governance into powerful protections against insiders sacrificing goals such as environmental sustainability in the pursuit of short-term profits. Creating a stable balance between financial returns and public benefits will allow social entrepreneurs to team up with impact investors that share their vision of a double bottom line. Brakman Reiser and Dean show how novel legal technologies can allow social enterprises to access capital markets, including unconventional sources such as crowdfunding. With its straightforward insights into complex areas of the law, the book shows how a social mission can even be shielded from the turbulence of an acquisition or bankruptcy. It also shows why, as the metrics available to measure the impact of social missions on individuals and communities become more sophisticated, such legal innovations will continue to become more robust. By providing a comprehensive survey of the U.S. laws and a bold vision for how legal institutions across the globe could be reformed, this book offers new insights and approaches to help social enterprises raise the capital they need to flourish. It offers a rich guide for students, entrepreneurs, investors, and practitioners.

Book excerpt: Today, alongside its all-important operations in direct support of the Global War on Terrorism, naval aviation also continues its now 60-year commitment to shaping the maritime and littoral environment through persistent forward presence. In the longer term, naval aviation is also adapting to a series of geopolitical revolutions which will dramatically increase the future demand for a secure sea base capable of projecting dominant power ashore in wartime against the full spectrum of possible opponents. It is adapting to these demands by exploiting technologies and operational practices developed in the last decade that will greatly increase its ability to surge and concentrate forces rapidly; protect the sea base from new air, surface, and undersea threats; and find, identify, locate, track, and strike mobile as well as fixed targets ashore, under all weather conditions, and in timely enough fashion to produce the desired effects. This report discusses the following topics: (1) Formal Alliances Provide Predictable Access, Informal Coalitions Do Not; (2) Distributed Ground Forces Require Persistent, Distributed Air Support; (3) The Sea Shield Must Be Dominant If the Sea Base Is to Be Effective; (4) Adapting; (5) The Spectrum from Presence to Major Combat; (6) Technology and the Spectrum of Threat; (7) The Value of Robust Airborne Early Warning (AEW) Aircraft; (8) No Substitute for Range in Carrier Aviation; (9) The Need for Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) is Not Going Away; (10) Land-Based Maritime Patrol Aircraft; (11) Multimission Helicopters; (12) New Capabilities and Challenges; (13) Eliminating the Weather Sanctuary for Mobile Targets; (14) Providing a Dominant Defense of the Sea Base; (15) Shoot Archers Not Arrows; (16) Make Opposing Submarines Pay for Their Inevitable Indiscretions; (17) Get Back in the Counter-Surveillance Business; and (18) The Force of the Future.

Book excerpt: To access the 2014-2015 Supplement click here. Copyright Law is unique among copyright casebooks in that it is tightly and coherently structured, intelligently distilled, and clearly contextualized. Halpern's casebook explores the complex and sometimes counterintuitive issues surrounding protection of intellectual creativity under US copyright law by ensuring that both student and professor always maintain an understanding of how doctrinal elements relate to the whole. Thus, the book is perfect for those students who have struggled with dense notes and opaque explanations, professors who have labored through cumbersome and poorly ordered texts, and for new teachers who need a concise and clear pedagogic template complete with both substantive doctrine and highly instructive cases. Simply put, Copyright Law is a refreshing primer on the title topic, and a welcome alternative to less coherent texts. The second edition expands upon the first and brings the material up-to-date while retaining its eminently teachable structure. "...a great primer for all things copyright...an excellent overview of the topic. The table of contents reads like a class outline you would 'borrow' from the smart guy sitting up front." -- Legal Information Alert, on the first edition

Book excerpt: Most Americans assume that universal access to health care is a desirable and humane political goal. Not so, says distinguished legal scholar Richard Epstein. In this seminal work, he explodes the unspoken assumption that a government-administered, universal health-care system would be a boon to America. Basing his argument in our common law traditions that limit the collective responsibility for an individual's welfare, he provides a political and economic analysis which suggests that unregulated provision of health care will, in the long run, guarantee greater access to quality medical care for more people. He also authoritatively documents the ways in which government regulation has actually reduced the availability of organs for vitally needed transplants, and has interfered with a sensible policy toward euthanasia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea that the state is a fiduciary to its citizens has a long pedigree - ultimately reaching back to the ancient Greeks, and including Hobbes and Locke among its proponents. Public fiduciary theory is now experiencing a resurgence, with applications that range from international law, to insider trading by members of Congress, to election law and gerrymandering. This book is the first of its kind: a collection of chapters by leading writers on public fiduciary subject areas. The authors develop new accounts of how fiduciary principles apply to representation; to officials and judges; to problems of legitimacy and political obligation; to positive rights; to the state itself; and to the history of ideas. The resulting volume should be of great interest to political theorists and public law scholars, to private fiduciary law scholars, and to students seeking an introduction to this new and increasingly relevant area of study.
