In this Research Handbook, today's leading experts on the law and
economics of corporate bankruptcy address fundamental issues such
as the efficiency of bankruptcy, the role and treatment of
creditors - particularly secured creditors - in the bankruptcy
process, the allocation of going-concern surplus among claimants,
the desirability of liquidation in the absence of such surplus, the
role of contract in bankruptcy resolution, the role of derivatives
in the bankruptcy process, the costs of the bankruptcy system, and
the special case of financial institutions, among other topics.
Chapters trace the historical path of both law and policy analysis,
with a focus on how the bankruptcy process serves underlying policy
objectives. Proposals to reform corporate bankruptcy are presented.
Research Handbook on Corporate Bankruptcy Law includes policy
analysis by both lawyers and economists and is thus an invaluable
resource to law scholars and students interested in the economic
analysis of corporate bankruptcy law, as well as to economics and
business scholars and students studying the law of corporate
bankruptcy. These pages will prove equally valuable to lawmakers
and judges who are interested in policy analysis of corporate
bankruptcy. Contributors include: K. Ayotte, D.G. Baird, A.J.
