Who Will Control Frankenstein?: The Korean Chaebol's Corporate Governance, Jeong Seo Apr 2006

Who Will Control Frankenstein?: The Korean Chaebol's Corporate Governance, Jeong Seo

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

In a chaebol, because a dominant family exercises control with only a small equity-holding, a sharp disparity exists between cashflow rights and voting rights. The controller reduces managerial agency costs but creates his own agency costs. Furthermore, the disparity exacerbates the controller's agency costs. Outsider shareholders' voting rights are ineffectual in eradicating this problem. Therefore, external monitoring devices over the chaebol controller are required.

Korea has relied on government regulation-including attempts to change chaebols' ownership structures-to address this problem. Unfortunately, without well-functioning capital markets, the regulation has proved ineffective. As observed in the SK scandal, a market for …


Does Title Ix Work After School? California Applies The Three Part Test To Municipal Sports, Aaron J. Hershtal Jan 2006

Does Title Ix Work After School? California Applies The Three Part Test To Municipal Sports, Aaron J. Hershtal

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note examines the extension of Title IX gender equity requirements to municipal sports programs through California's AB 2404, addressing disparities in resource allocation and participation opportunities for girls. It argues that while AB 2404 provides critical protections and opportunities, its implementation faces challenges, including budget constraints and potential unintended consequences for male athletes. The analysis highlights the importance of addressing systemic gender discrimination in sports and the need for policymakers to balance equity with practical considerations.

The Defined Contribution Paradigm, Edward A. Zelinsky Dec 2004

The Defined Contribution Paradigm, Edward A. Zelinsky

Articles

Pension cognoscenti have frequently remarked on the stagnation of defined benefit pensions and the concomitant rise of defined contribution plans. I suggest that, over the last generation, something even more fundamental has occurred, something that can justly be called a paradigm shift. Americans today primarily conceive of and implement retirement savings in the form of individual accounts. Such accounts have become primary instruments of public policy, not just for retirement savings, but increasingly for health care and education as well.

The Merger Of Law And Mediation: Lessons From Equity Jurisprudence And Roscoe Pound, Jacqueline M. Nolan-Haley Jan 2004

The Merger Of Law And Mediation: Lessons From Equity Jurisprudence And Roscoe Pound, Jacqueline M. Nolan-Haley

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Almost one hundred years ago, Roscoe Pound' warned about the decline of equity jurisprudence in the American legal system. He called this phenomenon the "decadence of equity."' Though Pound offered several causes for this decline, what we know today as "institutionalization" in the court system was the primary suspect. "The very thing that made equity a system must, in the end, prove fatal to it. In the very act of becoming a system, it becomes legalized, and in becoming merely a competing system of law insures its ultimate downfall." While Pound acknowledged that he saw some good from the "refinements" …

Preventing Inequities In Divorce And Education: The Equitable Distribution Of A Career Absent An Advanced Degree Or License, Sebastian Weiss Jan 2002

Preventing Inequities In Divorce And Education: The Equitable Distribution Of A Career Absent An Advanced Degree Or License, Sebastian Weiss

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note advocates for the extension of New York's equitable distribution laws to include careers without advanced degrees or licenses as marital assets. It argues that courts should consider the enhanced earning capacity of a spouse, even when not tied to a degree or license, to prevent inequities in divorce, consistent with the principles established in cases like O'Brien v. O'Brien.

The Machinery Of Law In Pharaonic Egypt: Organization, Courts And Judges On The Ancient Nile, Russ Versteeg Apr 2001

The Machinery Of Law In Pharaonic Egypt: Organization, Courts And Judges On The Ancient Nile, Russ Versteeg

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the sophisticated legal system of ancient Egypt, emphasizing its dual structure that combined human judicial administration with divine oracles. It highlights the roles of key officials such as the vizier and pharaoh, the organization of courts, and the emphasis on impartiality and fairness. The analysis also underscores the integration of religious elements, particularly the use of oracles, in legal decision-making, demonstrating a blend of secular and sacred authority.

The Earmarking Defense To Voidable Preference Liability: A Reconceptualization, David G. Carlson, William H. Widen Jul 1999

The Earmarking Defense To Voidable Preference Liability: A Reconceptualization, David G. Carlson, William H. Widen

Articles

The article argues that the earmarking doctrine, a judge-created exception to 547b liability, should be reinterpreted under 547c1 of the Bankruptcy Code. It posits that the doctrine's current reliance on vague concepts like "control" is legally unsound and inconsistent with statutory intent. By aligning earmarking with the contemporaneous exchange defense under 547c1, the analysis would focus on the parties' intent and the timing of the exchange, eliminating the need for the controversial control criterion. This approach would bring clarity and consistency to bankruptcy law, preventing arbitrary outcomes and ensuring compliance with the Bankruptcy Code.
