The Rhetoric and Reality of Shareholder Democracy and Hedge-Fund Activism - Jan Sup Shin - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Rhetoric and Reality of Shareholder Democracy and Hedge-Fund Activism - Jan Sup Shin - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

This Element investigates the historical and systemic roots of hedge-fund activism. It argues that the spirit of the New Deal financial regulations was subverted in the 1980s and 1990s in the name of shareholder democracy and opened the door for the rise of hedge-fund activism. It analyzes the effects of regulatory reforms including the introduction of compulsory voting by institutional investors, proxy-voting rule changes that greatly facilitated aggregation of the proxy votes of institutional investors, and rules that allow hedge funds to draw effectively limitless alternative investments from institutional investors. This Element also evaluates the recent empirical research on hedge-fund activism and explains why shareholder activism has gone awry. It argues that the regulatory changes created a large vacuum in the arena of corporate voting that hedge-fund activists can effectively exploit for their own profits. It concludes with policy proposals for rebuilding the proxy-voting and engagement system.

The Unfinished History of the Iran-Iraq War - Annie Tracy Samuel - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Unfinished History of the Iran-Iraq War - Annie Tracy Samuel - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), founded after the Iranian revolution in 1979, is one of the most powerful and prominent but least understood organizations in Iran. In this book, Annie Tracy Samuel presents an innovative and compelling history of this organization and, by using the Iran-Iraq War as a focal point, analyzes the links between war and revolution. Tracy Samuel provides an internal view of the IRGC by examining how the Revolutionary Guards have recorded and assessed the history of the war in the massive volume of Persian language publications produced by the organization''s top members and units. This not only enhances our comprehension of the IRGC''s roles and power in contemporary Iran, but also demonstrates how the history of the Iran-Iraq War has immense bearing on the Islamic Republic''s present and future. In doing so, the book reveals how analyzing Iran''s history provides the critical tools for understanding its actions today.
