Lubben S: To Protect Their Interests

To Protect Their Interests

The Invention and Exploitation of Corporate Bankruptcy

The 'fresh start' that is afforded individual debtors through the discharge doctrines of American bankruptcy law has, to date, defied justification by a single normative principle or theoretical paradigm. The justificatory accounts that have been advanced either fail to explain core doctrines that have long defined the right of discharge or invite theoretical challenges that suggest that their descriptive virtues are swamped by their normative or conceptual shortcomings. 

This book presents a taxonomy of traditional justifications of bankruptcy and subjects them to critical evaluation. It then seeks to offer a new justification of bankruptcy's 'fresh start' doctrines-one that takes its inspiration from a quite different moral tradition than those that have informed past efforts to justify and explain our enduring societal willingness to release people from onerous financial obligations. The book argues that personal debt relief is fully vindicated not by a utilitarian theory, nor by a distributive justice theory, nor by a retributive theory, nor by any other rights- or duties-based theory that is preoccupied with moral claims that particular creditors or debtors might proffer. Rather, the long-standing institution of discharge in bankruptcy is best explained by an aretaic, or virtue-based, theory that concerns itself with the obligations that the rest of us have to be charitable towards those who are unable to repay their debts. 

The fresh start that bankruptcy gives to those who have been shackled by overwhelming debt is justified not by its effects on creditors, debtors, or future market actors, but by its satisfaction of the demands of individual charity to which all citizens are subject. Bankruptcy's discharge of the debts of those who have become financially desperate is best thought to be an institution that aggregates others' demands of good character so as to permit citizens for whom debt-forgiveness is a personal virtue to live in a society that fulfils that virtue.

The ability to discover and respond to societal needs in the field of culture requires an integrated, interdisciplinary, and cross-sectoral approach. Such a holistic view is offered by the design thinking method, which has been extracted from the field of design and could be applied also in the sphere of culture. Interdisciplinarity and consideration of users' needs are characteristics of contemporary design and can be a significant support when faced with the challenges of cultural heritage management. The abovementioned factors act as the premise behind undertaking an analysis of the possibility of adapting the design thinking method to the management of intangible cultural heritage, and to develop a model of the design thinking process for this area. This research volume is the first comprehensive study of the application of the design thinking method to cultural management, especially management of the intangible cultural heritage. It asserts that design thinking can bring numerous benefits to organizations involved in the management of intangible cultural heritage and to its depositories. It will be of interest to researchers and academics in the fields of public and nonprofit management, strategic management, and value creation in the field of culture; students of design for culture and heritage; and practitioners in cultural management.

Crockett&nbsp;recounts the&nbsp;inspiring stories of these titans&nbsp;and&nbsp;relates&nbsp;their hard-won lessons&nbsp;for&nbsp;achieving&nbsp;greatness&nbsp;amid the stunning lack of racial equity that still plagues us today.&nbsp;These trailblazers&nbsp;share&nbsp;an&nbsp;extra&nbsp;dose of&nbsp;resolve and grit, the key to their&nbsp;success despite the&nbsp;difficulties they tackled as Black leaders—what Crockett calls the “alpha-plus” mentality.&nbsp;Trailblazers&nbsp;also&nbsp;homes in&nbsp;on a specific quality that each&nbsp;wielded&nbsp;on their path to the top—from a&nbsp;belief in the power of&nbsp;authentic identity, to&nbsp;a commitment to compromise or&nbsp;a performance mindset—and offers readers&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;on how to&nbsp;cultivate these qualities&nbsp;in&nbsp;themselves. The&nbsp;members of this group&nbsp;have enlightening perspectives on what it takes&nbsp;for&nbsp;not just&nbsp;Black leaders&nbsp;but any leaders&nbsp;to&nbsp;make it&nbsp;today. Their&nbsp;voices&nbsp;are needed now more than ever.

A strategy guide for founders who want to understand-and influence-the behavior of venture capitalists and investors so they can get their companies funded In Founder Unfriendly, veteran venture capitalist Charlie O'Donnell walks you through what actually happens after you leave a pitch meeting. Based on his own extensive, first-hand experience, O'Donnell provides a clear answer to the question of why so many "mediocre" startups get funded while young companies with brilliant concepts and people get passed over time and time again. The book skips the endless clichés about "successful founder traits" and recycled startup wisdom and gets right to the heart of why real VCs in the real world fund real companies with real money. It also explains exactly why those same investors say no so often, as well as what it might take to move them from a no to an enthusiastic yes. Inside the book: <ul> <li>Granular, specific advice that will transform your pitch deck from a liability into a game changing asset</li> <li>Strategies to shape the conversations investors have after you leave the room as they decide whether to fund your venture</li> <li>How to change your strategy based on the relative strength and momentum of the sectors you operate in</li> </ul> Perfect for first-time founders trying to get the lay of the VC land, Founder Unfriendly is also a must-read for seasoned entrepreneurs trying to hone their fundraising strategies. It's packed with proven and practical tools to help you build your company while capturing as much of the resulting value as possible.

In a movement-defining book, the "godmother of the current moment of dissatisfaction with establishment politics" (The New York Times) tells the story of the rising anti-monopoly movement and charts a course to a democratic futureIn a short, sharp political book, The Nation magazine's "Anti-Monopolist" columnist and "a prophet of the resurgent left" (Franklin Foer) explains the battle between the forces of oligarchy and the rise of the new anti-monopoly movement. Using the stories of modern anti-monopoly heroes including Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan; grocer Anthony Pena, who turned his frustrations with big box stores into a new grocers movement; and Doha Mekki, a Sudanese immigrant who developed the first successful criminal wage-fixing case for the Department of Justice; Teachout explains how anti-monopoly cuts across traditional political lines and gives real teeth to economic populism. Teachout, a scholar of the law of democracy and a politician whose run for governor of New York State shocked the political establishment, argues that monopoly is the architecture of private tyranny, and that breaking corporate power is essential to building a new democracy. From AI to agriculture, healthcare to energy, Americans understand that corporate concentration doesn't just cause inequality; it organizes power. Anti-Monopoly gives that feeling a name, a history, and a way forward. After a spate of books out of the Abundance movement arguing that we need to remove local democracy and focus on efficiency at scale, this book provides a sharp counterpoint.
