Auctions In Bankruptcy: Theoretical Analysis And Practical Guidance, Randall S. Thomas, Robert G. Hansen Jun 1998

Auctions In Bankruptcy: Theoretical Analysis And Practical Guidance, Randall S. Thomas, Robert G. Hansen

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

In academic circles, there are now a myriad of proposals for reform of Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy law. Many of these proposals call for the replacement of Chapter 11 with market-oriented alternatives, including in some cases, auction of insolvent, publicly held companies. Auctions in bankruptcy initially drew strong support form leading bankruptcy scholars. Recently though, other scholars have been critical of the case for auctions in bankruptcy. Our main purpose in this paper is to argue that these criticisms are both unwarranted and somewhat off the point.

The New Rawlsian Theory Of Bankruptcy Ethics, Mary Josephine Newborn Aug 1994

The New Rawlsian Theory Of Bankruptcy Ethics, Mary Josephine Newborn

Cardozo Law Review

Bankruptcy law was once considered a rather insular sub-specialty of commercial law. Bankruptcy scholars of an earlier time devoted their energies to drafting bankruptcy legislation, mastering its particulars, and systematizing the case law. When these scholars attempted to locate larger themes in bankruptcy, they labored with great deference to positive expressions of bankruptcy's purpose.
