Debt As Venture Capital, Darian M. Ibrahim

Faculty Publications

While most of the debate over possible standards has focused on the empirical question of each standard's economic utility, this Article undertakes a somewhat different task: It examines the normative benchmark that courts have actually chosen when adjudicating section 2 cases.
