From being a subject at the margins of finance, economics,
accounting, law and management, corporate governance is now
becoming a subject of more central concern to each of these
disciplines, and increasingly is regarded as a subject that is at
the heart of business and management studies. This book brings
together the most influential writing in corporate governance drawn
from finance, economics, accounting, law and management in an
integrative and interdisciplinary way.
Intended as a companion volume to International Corporate
Governance that surveys the global development of corporate
governance policy and practice, this book Theories of Governance
provides a valuable grounding in the classical theories
underpinning contemporary analysis of corporate governance:
* The origins of the modern business enterprise
* The separation of ownership and control
* How economic activity is organized through firms
* The managerial revolution in business
* Agency problems of managers representing investors
* Risk management and the conception of the company as a series of
transactions
* Shareholder value as the ultimate objective and measure of
corporate success
* Managerial hegemony and nominal boards of directors
* Stewardship theory and company board performance
* Stakeholder theory and the conception of the company as a set of
relationships
* The globalization of corporations, equity markets, and corporate
governance
* Convergence and divergence in corporate governance systems
* The impact of corporate objectives upon corporate stakeholders
