Shareholder Remuneration and the Law
This book discusses the mechanism of shareholder distribution restriction for creditor protection through an interdisciplinary lens. Identifying an optimal model of shareholder distribution regimes through a comparative study of the UK and China, the book explores how these regimes can function as a creditor protection mechanism by which distributions to shareholders are regulated to safeguard creditor interest. Calls for regulatory reforms in China have sprung from a high volume of shareholder-distribution-related litigations with inconsistent court decisions. Meanwhile, the UK adopts two models concurrently: capital maintenance rules for public companies and solvency tests for private companies. This book critically evaluates the efficacy of these two models in addressing the fundamental interest of company creditors, namely, the solvency of the company following distribution. Guided by legal transplant theories, this book examines the fit and feasibility of transplanting the UK’s distribution models to China. The book will be of interest to researchers, students and practitioners in the field of company law, finance law, accounting and banking law.

Deferred Prosecution Agreements and Directors’ Liability
This book provides in-depth analysis of deferred prosecution agreements (DPAs), a tool first introduced in the United States and since implemented in the United Kingdom and other jurisdictions.

Company directors are exposed to liability because of this negotiated deal between...
ÇARPITILMIŞ GERÇEKLİĞİN İNŞASI CİLT 1 - Medya ve İletişim Mesleklerinde Manipülasyon
“Yılan, Adem ve Havva’yı; şeytan, Habil’i öldürmesi için Kabil’i; Mefistofeles Faust’u; tilki kargayı kandırır. İnsanlar birbirini; bazen de kişi kendi kendini kandırır.” Bu sözler, kitaptaki bir bölümün giriş cümleleri, mesajı açık: Manipülasyon yeni değil. İnsan, kandırmak ve kandırılmak için ant içmişçesine, hayret verici şekilde tutarlı bir tavır sergiliyor! İnsanlığın ortak tecrübesi olan bu durumu yazgıya bağlamak, önemli bir konuyu gözden kaçırmak olurdu. Zira mantığa ve psikolojiye göre akıl çelinebilir; duygular yönlendirilebilir. İnsan zihni o kadar da kusursuz değil gibi. Retorik ve ikna çalışmaları başta olmak...
ÇARPITILMIŞ GERÇEKLİĞİN İNŞASI CİLT 2 - Manipülatif İletişimin Görünümleri
