Description

The Best of The Business Lawyer: 75 Years of Corporate Law Karl John Ege ISBN 9781641057097

The Best of The Business Lawyer brings together a carefully curated selection of the most influential articles on corporate law and corporate governance published in The Business Lawyer since its inaugural issue in July 1946. Choosing from decades of scholarship was no easy task, given the breadth of corporate law and the substantial volume of published work. While many outstanding articles could not be included, the editors deliberately focused on works addressing corporate law and corporate governance in their broadest sense, rather than more specialized subfields.

For more than 75 years, The Business Lawyer has been a leading voice in corporate law scholarship, featuring contributions from distinguished scholars and practitioners who have shaped modern business law. The articles selected for this volume reflect the evolving emphasis on the duties and responsibilities of officers and directors, as well as their relationships with shareholders. Topics explored include:

  • The role of the corporation in society

  • Federal versus state corporate law

  • Corporate management and governance

  • The business judgment rule

  • The roles and responsibilities of officers and shareholders

  • The role of the Securities and Exchange Commission

  • Mergers and acquisitions

  • The role of counsel

This collection offers readers a valuable historical and analytical perspective on the development of corporate law and governance, making it an essential resource for practitioners, scholars, and students alike.
