Delaware Fiduciary Duty Law After Qvc And Technicolor: A Unified Standard (And The End Of Revlon Duties?), Lawrence A. Cunningham, Charles M. Yablon Jan 1993

Delaware Fiduciary Duty Law After Qvc And Technicolor: A Unified Standard (And The End Of Revlon Duties?), Lawrence A. Cunningham, Charles M. Yablon

Articles

The Delaware Supreme Court's decisions in QVC and Technicolor have redefined the analysis of directors' fiduciary duties in takeover situations by rejecting the fragmented approach of separate duties under Revlon, Unocal, and MacMillan. Instead, these rulings establish a unified standard that combines the duties of care and loyalty under a single obligation of good faith and fair dealing, requiring directors to make reasonably informed judgments. This approach applies enhanced scrutiny to decisions involving sales of control, defensive tactics, and other extraordinary events, ensuring that directors act in the best interests of shareholders while allowing flexibility in their decision-making processes.

The Taming Of The Shrew: The Liberal Attempt To Mainstream Radical Feminist Theory, Jeanne L. Schroeder Oct 1992

The Taming Of The Shrew: The Liberal Attempt To Mainstream Radical Feminist Theory, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article critically examines the opposing views of Cass Sunstein and Catharine MacKinnon on pornography and its legal implications, highlighting their divergent definitions and approaches. Sunstein advocates for a narrow, violence-focused antipornography legislation, while MacKinnon pushes for a broader definition that encompasses gender subordination. The analysis reveals how Sunstein's critique of MacKinnon unintentionally weakens feminist challenges to masculinism by separating sexuality from power dynamics. MacKinnon's theory, rooted in a premodern Christian view of sexuality, posits that pornography constructs women as objects, reinforcing gender inequality. The article underscores the tension between legal reform and the deeper structural changes needed to address …

Bioethics And The Family: The Cautionary View From Family Law, Carl E. Schneider Jul 1992

Bioethics And The Family: The Cautionary View From Family Law, Carl E. Schneider

Articles

For many years, the field of bioethics has been specially concerned with how the authority to make medical decisions should be allocated between doctor and patient. Today the patient's power-indeed, the patient's right-is widely acknowledged, at least in principle. But this development can hardly be the last word in our thinking about how medical decisions should be made. For one thing, sometimes patients cannot speak for themselves. For another, patients· make medical decisions in contexts that significantly include more participants than just the patient and doctor. Now, as this conference demonstrates, bioethics is beginning to ask what role the patient's …

Dilemmas Of Justice, Stephen J. Schulhofer, Michel Rosenfeld Jul 1992

Dilemmas Of Justice, Stephen J. Schulhofer, Michel Rosenfeld

Articles

The Hungarian Constitutional Court's decision to invalidate a retroactivity law aimed at prosecuting crimes committed during the prior regime highlights a tension between rule-of-law principles and demands for retributive justice. The court ruled that extending or reopening statutes of limitations violated constitutional guarantees of legal certainty, non-retroactivity, and the protection of rights previously conferred. The decision underscores the court's commitment to an expansive interpretation of constitutional rights, emphasizing the importance of predictable and foreseeable legal consequences. While the ruling prioritizes rule-of-law values, it leaves unresolved the question of how to address past injustices in post-totalitarian societies.
