Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This analysis of how multi-level networked governance has superseded the liberal system of interdependent states focuses on the role of law in mediating power and shows how lawyers have shaped the main features of capitalism, especially the transnational corporation. It covers the main institutions regulating the world economy, including the World Bank, the IMF, the WTO and a myriad of other bodies, and introduces the reader to key regulatory arenas: corporate governance, competition policy, investment protection, anti-corruption rules, corporate codes and corporate liability, international taxation, avoidance and evasion and the campaign to combat them, the offshore finance system, international financial regulation and its contribution to the financial crisis, trade rules and their interaction with standards especially for food safety and environmental protection, the regulation of key services (telecommunications and finance), intellectual property and the tensions between exclusive private rights and emergent forms of common and collective property in knowledge.

Download or read book Neoliberal Legality written by Honor Brabazon and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neoliberalism has been studied as a political ideology, an historical moment, an economic programme, an institutional model, and a totalising political project. Yet the role of law in the neoliberal story has been relatively neglected, and the idea of neoliberalism as a juridical project has yet to be considered. That is: neoliberal law and its interrelations with neoliberal politics and economics has remained almost entirely neglected as a subject of research and debate. This book provides a systematic attempt to develop a holistic and coherent understanding of the relationship between law and neoliberalism. It does not, however, examine law and neoliberalism as fixed entities or as philosophical categories. And neither is its objective to uncover or devise a ‘law of neoliberalism’. Instead, it uses empirical evidence to explore and theorise the relationship between law and neoliberalism as dynamic and complex social phenomena. Developing a nuanced concept of ‘neoliberal legality’, neoliberalism, it is argued here, is as much a juridical project as a political and economic one. And it is only in understanding the juridical thrust of neoliberalism that we can hope to fully comprehend the specificities, and continuities, of the neoliberal period as a whole.

Download or read book Shareholder Democracy written by Lisa M. Fairfax and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a succinct, practical guide for understanding what some have referred to as shareholder democracy--efforts to facilitate and increase shareholder voting power within the corporation. In the past few years there has been a surge in shareholder activism that has had a profound impact on the corporation. Shareholders and other activists have sought to increase shareholders' voting power within the corporation based largely on the belief that increasing shareholder power will increase director and officer accountability, thereby helping to curb corporate misconduct and improve corporate performance. However, there is intense debate regarding whether increased shareholder power can achieve such objectives and whether increased shareholder power will negatively impact the corporation. This book is the first to provide a concise, but comprehensive look at the various ways in which shareholders have sought to enhance their voting power and influence within the corporation. In addition to examining shareholder activism, this book highlights and analyzes the debate regarding the propriety of increased shareholder power. This book also analyzes the impact of recent developments aimed at facilitating shareholder power such as majority voting, say on pay, and proxy access. This book will serve as a useful tool not only for those who desire a straight-forward analysis of shareholder rights and activism, but also for those seeking a reference guide on an issue of growing importance to corporate law and corporate governance.

Download or read book L impresa in crisi written by Alfonso Badini Confalonieri and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2014-11-14 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volume offre un quadro complessivo delle procedure proposte dal nostro ordinamento per la soluzione della crisi dell’impresa, ripercorrendo, con il contributo di magistrati, avvocati e commercialisti, le tappe del complesso iter compiuto dal legislatore nell’ultimo decennio e trattando, con profili interdisciplinari, le principali questioni dibattute in dottrina ed in giurisprudenza. In particolare, il volume tratta dei presupposti del concordato preventivo, dei suoi possibili contenuti e della procedura giudiziale di ammissione, argomenti sui quali si è maggiormente concentrata l’innovazione legislativa di questi ultimi anni e con essa una ricca produzione giurisprudenziale. Sono quindi sviluppati temi e istituti nuovi, quali il concordato con riserva, la continuità aziendale e il giudizio di fattibilità del tribunale. Non manca una ricostruzione sistematica degli accordi stragiudiziali nell’ambito della crisi d’impresa, anch’essi riformati con l’introduzione di strumenti tipici quali i piani attestati e gli accordi di ristrutturazione dei debiti. Viene dato spazio anche al trust, altro strumento negoziale, con la sua peculiare derivazione da ordinamenti esteri. Una specifica trattazione è dedicata alle varie attestazioni di veridicità, fattibilità e convenienza previste nel concordato preventivo, nei piani attestati e negli accordi di ristrutturazione, nonché ai principi nazionali e internazionali che devono essere osservati dall’esperto alle connesse sue responsabilità. Ancora, viene esaminata la transazione fiscale, sia nel concordato preventivo sia nell’accordo di ristrutturazione dei debiti, con particolare attenzione agli effetti della mancata accettazione della transazione stessa e alla vexata quaestio della sua rilevanza per un concordato con falcidia del credito erariale per Iva e ritenute. Infine, un esame dei profili penali, sia nella responsabilità dell’attestatore, sia nei reati di bancarotta semplice e preferenziale. L’insieme fornisce così, nell’ambito di una tematica sempre più attuale, il più aggiornato sforzo di esposizione sistematica di una tumultuosa evoluzione legislativa e giurisprudenziale, che ha propaggini significative ancora nel 2014.

Download or read book Epistemology and Methodology of Comparative Law written by Mark Van Hoecke and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whereas many modern works on comparative law focus on various aspects of legal doctrine the aim of this book is of a more theoretical kind - to reflect on comparative law as a scholarly discipline, in particular at its epistemology and methodology. Thus, among its contents the reader will find: a lively discussion of the kind of 'knowledge' that is, or could be, derived from comparative law; an analysis of 'legal families' which asks whether we need to distinguish different 'legal families' according to areas of law; essays which ask what is the appropriate level for research to be conducted - the technical 'surface level', a 'deep level' of ideology and legal practice, or an 'intermediate level' of other elements of legal culture, such as the socio-economic and historical background of law. One part of the book is devoted to questioning the identification and demarcation of a 'legal system' (and the clash between 'legal monism' and 'legal pluralism') and the definition of the European legal orders, sub-State legal orders, and what is left of traditional sovereign State legal systems; while a final part explores the desirability and possibility of developing a basic common legal language, with common legal principles and legal concepts and/or a legal meta-language, which would be developed and used within emerging European legal doctrine. All the papers in this collection share the common goal of seeking answers to fundamental, scientific problems of comparative research that are too often neglected in comparative scholarship.
