A Charitable Corporate Giving Justification For The Socially Responsible Investment Of Pension Funds: A Populist Argument For The Public Use Of Private Wealth, Edward S. Adams, Karl D. Knutsen Jan 1995

A Charitable Corporate Giving Justification For The Socially Responsible Investment Of Pension Funds: A Populist Argument For The Public Use Of Private Wealth, Edward S. Adams, Karl D. Knutsen

Articles

This Article proposes a novel justification for the socially responsible investment of pension funds based upon traditional principles of charitable corporate giving and populism. This Article asserts that the justifications employed by courts in the first half of the twentieth century to expand the direct benefit doctrine in the charitable corporate giving context provide a foundation for allowing socially responsible investing in the pension fund context today. In formulating this thesis, Part I of this Article surveys the present limitations placed upon pension fund fiduciaries in the context of socially responsible investing. Part II then describes the traditional legal model …

Fuzzifying The Natural Law--Legal Positivist Debate, Edward S. Adams, Torben Spaak

Personal Jurisdiction In The Bankruptcy Context: A Need For Reform, Edward Adams, Rachel E. Iverson Jan 1995

Personal Jurisdiction In The Bankruptcy Context: A Need For Reform, Edward Adams, Rachel E. Iverson

Articles

This Article analyzes and evaluates the debate concerning a bankruptcy court's ability to assert personal jurisdiction over a foreign entity. Additionally, this Article advocates that the Bankruptcy Rules be amended to conform to the new federal long-arm statute, FRCP 4. More specifically, this Article asserts and demonstrates that: (1) the current status of the law in bankruptcy cases regarding personal jurisdiction is uncertain; (2) prior to the 1993 amendments to FRCP 4, some courts improperly broadened the jurisdiction of bankruptcy courts by allowing them to assert power over defendants by focusing on a defendant's nationwide contacts as opposed to contacts …
