LEGL203: Modern Corporate Governance |
This unit will provide students of law and other disciplines with an understanding of the constitutional structure of the business corporation and its relation to the development of modern political, economic, and legal systems. Major problems of corporate governance and finance will be considered in the light of materials drawn from a range of disciplines including legal and constitutional history, economics, political science, and sociology. Consideration will be given to debates over corporate governance, which turn on whether business corporations are conceived as purely economic units of capital accumulation or as private governments with the capacity to make and enforce public policy. Changes in the respective roles of the state, shareholders, managers, and other stakeholders in corporate governance will be examined throughout the unit.
