Updated to reflect changing trends and new judicial developments, Corporations: Law and Policy, Materials and Problems exposes students to the richness and complexity of corporate law, with carefully crafted and painstakingly edited cases. The book's organization reflects the growing importance, doctrinally and structurally, of the business judgment rule. Each chapter includes a problem for class discussion, many of which place students in the role of corporate planners and allow instructors to highlight the real-world impact of doctrinal uncertainty concerning the scope of the director's duty of care. The fifth edition includes updated emphasis on the corporation as a set of rules meant to resolve intra-corporate conflicts and protect investor/creditor expectations. The book also provides expanded treatment of the role of institutional shareholders and outside directors in corporate governance; the debate surrounding state-chartering competition and the prominence of Delaware in U.S. corporate law; the duties of controlling shareholders; and SEC rules and Sarbanes-Oxley provisions affecting corporate disclosures and insider-trading duties.
