Comprising essays specially commissioned for the volume, leading
scholars who have shaped the field of corporate law and governance
explore and critique developments in this vibrant and expanding
area and offer possible directions for future research. This
important addition to the Research Handbooks in Law and Economics
series provides insights into subjects such as the role of
directors, shareholders, creditors and employees; empirical studies
of litigation and shareholder activism; executive compensation;
corporate gatekeepers; comparative law; and behavioral approaches
to law and finance. Topics are organized within five sections:
corporate constituencies, insider governance, gatekeepers,
jurisdiction, and new theory. Taken as a whole, the volume serves
as an introduction for those new to the field and as a reference
for those unfamiliar with some of the topics discussed.
Authoritative and accessible, the Research Handbook on the
Economics of Corporate Law will be a valuable resource for
students, scholars, and practitioners of corporate law and
economics. Contributors: R.B. Ahdieh, V. Atanasov, S.M. Bainbridge,
