Business Organizations Law and Policy

Business Organizations Law and Policy Synopsis

The Tenth Edition continues the basic approach of its predecessors: using problems as a vehicle for discussing cases and textual material to develop an understanding of the law of business enterprises and the policy issues that influence its evolution. The new edition continues to develop sophisticated materials on noncorporate business entities, and it adds significant new cases and commentary on new developments in law including Delaware cases on information rights, shareholder litigation, and the Caremark doctrine. The commentary has been updated for new developments including discussion of the role of corporations in society and the influence of and trends in shareholder proposals. It also made modest organizational changes that streamline the sequential delivery of important lessons.
