Inhaltsangabe

The rules governing hostile takeovers have been fiercely contested since the 1990s, but such struggles rarely took place in parliaments. This book studies these political battles in four countries - France, Germany, Japan and the Netherlands.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'... creates an important new window on the dynamics of how organized business interests operate in practice and how they interact with government. This is a carefully-researched book of interest not only to political scientists but also scholars of corporate governance. It is also sufficiently grounded in the detail of real events to be of interest to practitioners of business. ... this is a valuable and interesting book. ... This book makes an important contribution not only to the understanding of how political processes are driven, but also to the ways that corporate interests manage their survival within and around them, through a mixture of formal and informal procedures.' Comparative Labor Law and Policy Journal

'Quiet Politics and Business Power is an immensely thoughtful and stimulating book that should be read by all scholars of comparative political economy, and is of particular interest to those who wish to better understand contemporary changes in corporate governance in the industrialized world.' ILR Review
