The Step-by-Step Beginner's LLC Handbook

The Simplest Guide to Start, Run, and Grow Your First Company. With Smart Tax Strategies, Expert Insights, and Essential Legal Instructions

Governments around the world are privatizing everything, with dramatic but largely ignored negative consequences for human rights. This open access book outlines the response that is urgently needed. Corporations are being given control over water, healthcare, housing, public transportation, child welfare services, aged care, and much else. Privatization is promoted by international financial institutions, consulting firms, and development actors as the answer to public finances devastated by the very tax cuts insistently pushed by these groups. Their pitch is based upon a mythology that extols the virtues of an idealized market while ignoring the heavy human rights costs incurred. Building on the latest evidence and on specially commissioned case studies, this book shows how the touted 'efficiency' of the private sector is often predicated on higher charges and/or reduced services, destructive employment practices, and the highly predictable exclusion of many users. Privatization generally costs states more money, marginalizes democratic decision-making, and transforms citizens from rights-holders into customers while sidelining accountability. The authors develop an approach designed to enable human rights actors, including courts, UN treaty monitoring bodies, and NGOs to move beyond their longstanding agnosticism towards privatization. It starts with a presumption that privatization is inherently retrogressive in human rights terms. Whatever mix of public and private is reflected in any given arrangement, governments must retain the degree of control necessary to ensure respect for rights, and the legal, financial and administrative ability to do so. The book charts a new direction for responding to the ever-growing threat that privatization poses to human rights.

Destroying the Social Contract and Empowering Corporate Actors

Privatizing Human Rights

Corporate Ordering explains how modern corporations navigate social conflict when law is incomplete, politics are polarized, and shareholders disagree about corporate purpose. Drawing on original case studies from ridesharing, climate sustainability, and artificial intelligence companies, the book reveals the internal governance systems corporations use to set standards, justify decisions, and monitor their impact. Moving beyond the familiar debates between shareholder primacy and stakeholder capitalism, the book offers a clear framework for understanding how corporate power actually operates in practice. Written for scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and informed general readers, it provides a timely guide to corporate governance in a world where business decisions increasingly function as social policy.

'The Transfer of Public-Law Personnel Authorizations. A Conflict Between Entrepreneurial (Succession) Freedom and Risk Prevention': A large majority of companies hold public-law approvals, whose continuity is crucial in the context of business succession. So far, there is no uniform regulation, creating significant uncertainty in practice. This study examines the transferability of personal approvals, demonstrates that the assumption of their non-transferability is untenable, and develops criteria as well as a legal proposal for a secure and business-friendly succession.

Ein Spannungsfeld zwischen Unternehmer(nachfolge)freiheit und Gefahrenabwehr

Der Übergang öffentlich-rechtlicher Personalzulassungen

This book analyses recent developments in English corporate restructuring law from a range of comparative and theoretical perspectives, exploring some of the most difficult aspects of the design of domestic restructuring laws and their application in cross-border cases. Recent reforms to English law took place against the backdrop of corporate restructuring law reform initiatives in Europe and in many other regions of the world. These reforms reflect an emerging consensus as to the importance of such laws, both as a complement to macroeconomic stabilisation tools in times of extraordinary crisis, and as a determinant of investment conditions in more ordinary times. But it is one thing to recognise the importance of such laws in the abstract, and quite another to work out precisely how corporate restructuring rules should be designed. This book explores some of the most complex aspects of designing such rules. It does so primarily through the close analysis of the changes made by the enactment of the Corporate Insolvency and Governance Act 2020 (UK), and the interpretation of the new statutory provisions by the courts, although chapter authors draw extensively on examples from other jurisdictions to critically analyse choices made in the UK, and in some cases offer separate evaluation of restructuring law reform processes outside the UK, including in select jurisdictions in the EU and in Africa, and in the US. By drawing on experiences in other jurisdictions, and on insights from theory, the book casts new light on recent developments in English law, suggesting many avenues for further research and a range of implications for policymakers. These implications are brought out in an introductory chapter by the editors introducing the landmark 2020 reforms. This chapter provides a detailed synopsis of each chapter of the book, drawing out connections between them, and articulates some themes that run through the chapters that are salient for policymakers.

Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries.

China Perspectives

Combining legal analysis, comparative methodologies, and original empirical research, this book provides a detailed examination of institutional shareholder activism in China and its wider global implications.It traces the evolution of shareholder activism in China, from the emergence of modern institutional investors in the early 2000s, through to the 2023 revision of China's Company Law. This development has occurred within a market characterized by concentrated ownership, state influence, and dynamic regulatory changes. The book demonstrates that activism in China is both real and significant, yet distinct from Western models. Its scope encompasses routine voting, shareholder meetings, private engagement, regulatory complaints, and litigation support. Conceptualizing shareholder activism as 'bounded shareholder voice', the author argues that the future of such activism - both in China and globally - depends on the development of context-sensitive systems. These systems must adapt to unique market and regulatory environments.This book is essential reading for scholars, postgraduate students, policymakers, and institutional investors interested in corporate law and governance, investor influence, and corporate accountability in global markets.
