Corporate Governance

NEW

Corporate Governance, The Firm

and Investor Capitalism

Legal-Political and Economic Views

Alexander Styhre, University of Gothenburg,

Sweden

The shift from managerial capitalism to investor

capitalism, dominated by the finance industry and

finance capital accumulation, is jointly caused by a

variety of institutional, legal, political, and ideological

changes, beginning with the 1970s’ downturn of

the global economy This book traces how the

incorporation of businesses within the realm of the state leads to both certain

benefits, characteristic of competitive capitalism, and to the emergence of new

corporate governance problems emerges Contrasting economic, legal, and

managerial views of corporate governance practices in contemporary capitalism,

the author examines how corporate governance has been understood and

advocated differently during the New Deal era, the post-World War II economic

boom, and after 1980 in the era of free market advocacy

NEW Corporate Accountability

The Role and Impact of Non-Judicial Grievance Mechanisms

Karin Lukas, Barbara Linder, Ludwig Boltzmann

Institute of Human Rights, Astrid Kutrzeba, Kpunkt Training GmbH and Claudia Sprenger,

Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights, Austria

Whilst many of us would agree that human rights are more important than corporate profits, the reality

is often different; such realities as child labour and environmental destruction caused by corporate activities make this patently clear Recognising that balancing human rights and business interests can be

problematic, Corporate Accountability considers the limits of existing complaint

mechanisms and examines non-judicial alternatives for conflict resolution

Corporate Law

KEY TITLE

Limited Liability

A Legal and Economic Analysis

Stephen M Bainbridge, University

of California, Los Angeles

and M Todd Henderson, University

of Chicago, US

‘Bainbridge and Henderson have given us one

of the most important books on one of the most

important contemporary legal issues, the liability

of individual and corporate shareholders for

corporate debts There is no issue in corporate law

more subject to uncertainty and no issue more

likely to be litigated No single book has ever attempted, much less carried off,

the complete historical, international, economic and legal theoretical exegesis

of limited liability, which these two authors do with range, depth, confidence

and even a bit of panache This monograph, of crucial interest both to scholars

and practitioners, will become an instant classic and an immediate authority.’

European Insolvency Law

Reform and Harmonisation

Gerard McCormack, Andrew Keay and Sarah Brown,

University of Leeds, UK

‘This is an important and timely document which will serve as a highly valuable

resource and reference point for many types of user in the years to come The

comprehensive coverage of the insolvency laws of all current Member States

of the EU, plus the two comparator jurisdictions, on the key topics selected for

analysis provides the most complete picture of the current state of law and

practice to have been compiled The involvement of national experts from all

the jurisdictions surveyed ensures that this study is both authoritative and

reliable, as well being commendably up-to-date (to the closing weeks of 2015)

The numerous comparative tables, giving accessible insight into the workings

of so many diverse jurisdictions “at a glance”, backed up by detailed textual

analysis and comment, combine to deliver a vital reference tool for policy

reformers and legislators, as well as for scholars and researchers exploring the

areas of business failure and insolvency, and consumer over-indebtedness, in

an increasingly globalised and inter-connected world.’

Bo Xie, University of Dundee, UK
