This book is a concise analytical overview of the field of corporate law. The authors start from the premise that corporate (or company) law across jurisdictions addresses the same three basic agency problems: (1) the opportunism of managers vis-+-vis shareholders; (2) the opportunism of controlling shareholders vis-+-vis minority shareholders; and (3) the opportunism of shareholders as a class vis-+-vis other corporate constituencies, such as corporate creditors and employees.
