Transforming Governance: New Values, New Systems in the New
Business Environment, edited by Maria Aluchna and GA1/4ler Aras
addresses the current state, as well as the development of
corporate governance and its perceived tasks and functions, in
response to the changing market and regulatory environment. Divided
into three parts, the book firstly addresses the variety of
theoretical approaches. The inefficiencies, scandals and crises as
well as the significant shortcomings and current criticism of
shareholder value provide a new setting and theoretical assumptions
for the purpose and role of corporate governance in the economy and
society. The second section of the book goes on to discuss the
forces which lead to the changing corporate governance paradigm, as
companies are expected to incorporate not only shareholders but
also stakeholders expectations and report and improve upon social
and environmental performance. The focus of this section is to
present the impact of stakeholders, the requirement for corporate
social responsibility and sustainability, as well as the increasing
importance of women in management and their participation at
corporate board level. Section Three contains corporate governance
case studies within various organizational and institutional
settings; including the case of family companies, social
enterprises/benefit corporations, sustainable companies and
emerging markets. The book's contributors comprise both researchers
and business experts addressing both theoretical and practical
dimensions.
