Editorial Review:

"The best published account so far of the reforms of the stock markets in the United Kingdom."--Sir Nicholas Goodison, Deputy Chairman, Lloyds TSB Group, plc.

"A simple suggestion: anyone who cares to comment on Japan's commitment to deregulation must first read this book. As Steven Vogel explains, . . . deregulation comes in many guises."--Japan Times

"Vogel writes with extraordinary clarity about a very complex subject. His discussion of deregulation in Japan not only gives the reader a clear understanding of the distinct issues of market liberalization and regulatory reform as they have been pursued in Japan, but also offers a nuanced analysis of the relationship between state and market in contemporary Japan."--Gerald L. Curtis, Columbia University

"There is growing acceptance of the claim that international market forces have been compelling reluctant governments to deregulate, liberalize, and privatize ever more segments of their domestic economies. . . . Steven Vogel's refreshing book presents a compelling political challenge to such oversimplifications."--Comparative Political Studies

Editorial Review:

This respected and authoritative two-volume treatise gives you the critical information you need to analyze, draft, and litigate with confidence all covenants not to compete and other restrictive covenants in the employment, partnership, franchise, and sale-of-business contexts. Covenants Not to Compete: A State-by-State Survey, Fourth Edition provides an in-depth examination of the full range of covenant enforceability issues across the nation.

Covenants Not to Compete: A State-by-State Survey, Fourth Edition includes a complete catalog of the temporal, geographic, and activity restrictions that have been successfully imposed—and successfully challenged—under both the governing state statutes and the common law.

This invaluable resource also thoroughly addresses, by state, the types of interests that can be legitimately protected by a restrictive covenant; the types of consideration needed to support such an agreement (whether executed at the beginning of—or during—the employment relationship); the tests of enforceability; judicial approaches to modifying overbroad covenants; the availability of injunctive relief and damages; the effect of liquidated damages clauses on requests for injunctive relief; and the numerous defenses available.

This edition examines and explains a number of court decisions resolving several questions of first impression, such as:

the covenant-protectability under Indiana law of the image or persona of an employee developed, promoted, and advertised by the employer;

the enforceability of fee-for-competition clauses under Kansas law;

covenant assignability under Pennsylvania law where the employer retains a financial interest in a business sold to a successor employer;

the enforceability under Texas law of a forum selection clause where the enforceability of a covenant is at issue; and

the proper test of enforceability for franchise-context noncompetition covenants governed by Wisconsin law, and more.

Covenants Not to Compete: A State-by-State Survey, Fourth Edition also expands the number of topics addressed in the treatise, discussing for the first time: Board of Accountancy Code of Professional Conduct; Context Characterization: Lease Context Versus Sale of Business Context; Courts, Specialized Business; Personally Binding or Not; Removal/Joinder of Defendants; and Ripeness for Review.

Editorial Review:

In this integration of law and economic ideas, Herbert Hovenkamp charts the evolution of the legal framework that regulated American business enterprise from the time of Andrew Jackson through the first New Deal. He reveals the interdependent relationship between economic theory and law that existed in these decades of headlong growth and examines how this relationship shaped both the modern business corporation and substantive due process. Classical economic theory--the cluster of ideas about free markets--became the guiding model for the structure and function of both private and public law.

Hovenkamp explores the relationship of classical economic ideas to law in six broad areas related to enterprise in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He traces the development of the early business corporation and maps the rise of regulated industry from the first charterbased utilities to the railroads. He argues that free market political economy provided the intellectual background for constitutional theory and helped define the limits of state and federal regulation of business behavior. The book also illustrates the unique American perspective on political economy reflected in the famous doctrine of substantive due process. Finally, Hovenkamp demonstrates the influence of economic theory on labor law and gives us a reexamination of the antitrust movement, the most explicit intersection of law and economics before the New Deal.

Legal, economic, and intellectual historians and political scientists will welcome these trenchant insights on an influential period in American constitutional and corporate history.

Read CFR rather than read this book 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This book was nothing more than copying Code of Federal Regulation.
It was time and money waste.
I don't understand why and how this kind of book can be published.

Editorial Review:

This work provides an in-depth discussion of the regulatory regimes that are applied to exports from the United States as defined in the Export Administration Act. The focus is on Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and their impact on the exportation of a wide range of high tech goods and data including: computers, avionics, electronics, chemicals, aircraft engines, defense articles, and services to foreign military forces.

The author provides the reader with a comprehensive review of the ten general prohibitions found in EAR and a discussion of how these prohibitions are applied as well as the policy considerations behind their application. In addition, the author provides the reader with steps to determine if regulatory requirements have been met and if any of the general prohibitions apply.

Designing Judicial Review: Interest Groups, Congress, and Communications Policy

Editorial Review:

Members of Congress and interest groups fiercely struggle over the seemingly unimportant procedural details of legislation such as the provisions for judicial review. Charles R. Shipan, in a study based on a detailed consideration of congressional debates over communications legislation, argues that the actors realize that current procedural choices will structure future alternatives and thus are willing to expend considerable resources over these issues. Using a rational choice framework, Shipan argues that provisions for judicial review, such as the specification of which agency actions are reviewable and which courts have review authority, are among the issues over which interested parties struggle because these issues will significantly affect the outcome of important future court action.
Shipan tests his theory in a detailed exploration of the development of communications legislation during the 1920s and 1930s. This is a rich period in which to study the importance of judicial review provisions, for, while most political actors accepted the courts as part of the regulatory process, the concept of assigning broad decision-making powers to agencies was new and controversial. In addition, regulation of radio was both an important issue and one fraught with uncertainty, thus inducing members of Congress and interest groups to attempt to plan ahead for future actions. Shipan examines the motivations, actions, and choices of both interest groups and members of Congress. He then looks at the impact of the choices made on later court action in the communications legislation.
This book will appeal to political scientists and legal scholars interested in the politics of judicial review, the courts, legislative politics, and communication policy.
Charles R. Shipan is Assistant Professor of Political Science, University of Iowa, and is a Robert Woods Johnson Fellow, University of Michigan.

Editorial Review:

This is the sixth edition of the Introductory Guide to EC Competition Law and Practice by Valentine Korah. Written originally as a guide for business people, it has long since outstripped that role and is now among the list of books considered essential for students and practitioners of competition law. Its clear and readable style complements a text which is rich in detail yet also firmly rooted in principle. For students it offers a sure-footed introduction to a subject which can confuse the unwary; and by referring extensively to practice it also gives the student an invaluable insight into how the law works in the real world. For practitioners, whether novice or experienced, there is an abundance of insight into the arcane workings of the European Commission, as well as trenchant comment on its decisions and policies. This new edition maintains the standard of earlier editions by analysing the most recent legislation, notices and cases, and by suggesting the way the subject may develop in future years.
