Book Synopsis
High-profile corporate scandals - such as those involving Enron in the United States, Yukos in Russia, and Liverdoor in Japan - demonstrate challenges to the legal regulation of business practices in capitalist economies. This book examines contemporary corporate governance crises in six countries.

Trade Review
"Two of the world's best scholars in law and economic development have teamed up to explain how different governments try to promote economic growth.... The 'institutional autopsies' - case studies of firm-level scandals around the world like Enron - engage the reader and draw the general out of the particular. You enjoy this book as you learn from it." - Robert Cooter, University of California, Berkeley.
