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 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award for Nonfiction Finalist National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction Finalist A New York Times Notable Book of the Year A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A PBS “Now Read This” Book Club Selection Named one of the Best Books of the Year by the Economist and the Boston Globe 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.

Download or read book Cases and Materials on Corporations written by John C. Coffee and published by Wolters Kluwer. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 0 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.

This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 1064 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commentaries on the Law of Public Corporations Including Municipal Corporations and Political or Governmental Corporations of Every Class, Vol. 1 of 2 In these volumes I have attempted to consider all the law of public corporations, including municipal corporations, and governmental or political corporations of' every class. The scope of, the work is, therefore, somewhat wider than that of any other. With which I am acquainted. I have proposed to myself the task of making a treatise which shall cover the entire field of public company law in all its details, using the term public companies in its widest modern sense, and I have studiously undertaken in the volumes in hand not to omit the law, as declared in the decided cases or defined by statute, of any sort of a public corporation. This work, therefore, and my Private Corporations (chicago, 1891) complement each other, and, taken together, are intended to constitute a complete treatise, in four uniform volumes, on Company Law in all its phases, from the federal government at the one extreme - which, in this country at least, is the first of public corporations (united States to. Man rice, 2 Break. 96, 109 (per Marshall, 0. J Ableman v. Booth, 21 How. Possessing defined and limited corporate powers, with the capacity to contract and be contracted with, to sue in its corporate name The Government of the United States, Cohens v. Virginia, 6 Wheat. 264) and to be sued by consent, and which, having been duly created as a corporation by the people of the several original States, acquired a true cor potate entity, and went into operation, or commenced the transaction of its business, on Wednesday, March 4, 1789 (owings C. Speed, 5 Wheat. 420) - to the most insignificant joint-stock association or local incorporation, at the other extreme. Within this wide range should seem to be included every sort of an association among men which' passes for a. Corporation or a company, aside from partnerships on the one hand, and political S'overeignties on the other. The subject of Public or Municipal Corporations, as com pared with that of Private Corporations, is, both in this coun try and in England, largely statutory, and the intelligent reader will, therefore, perhaps not be surprised at the space given in the text to the consideration of many local statutes and ordinances. Sometimes these statutes are types of classes of statutes found in many States, but perhaps more frequently are distinct and 8m? Generis, and must, therefore, in a treatise designed to be general, be separately considered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
