Corporate law theory and practice considers shareholder relations with companies and the implications of ownership separated from control. Yet through the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) bailout and the government's resultant shareholding, ownership and control at many companies have merged, leaving corporate theory and practice for the financial and automotive sectors in chaos. The government's $700 billion bailout is a unique historical event; not merely because of its size, but also because of a resulting ripple through corporate scholarship and practice. This article builds on the author's five testimonies before Congress during the financial crisis and implementation of the TARP bailout and his consultation for the Special Inspector General for TARP. After considering corporat...

Economists describe the current global financial crisis as the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Moreover, the US government's response has been almost as unprecedented as the crisis it is aimed to forestall and correct. Beginning in 1997, four authors published a series of articles based on a theory that the historical origins of a country's laws shape its legal rules and regulations, as well as its fundamental approach to problem-solving. This theory, known as the legal origins theory or LLSV, predicts that a country's legal origin influences its laws and regulations. This article maintains that the current crisis is so severe that it overwhelms any explanatory or predictive value that may have been derived from the legal origins theory. Some strands of the crisis leg...

Energy budget calls for cuts in several programs WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration will propose significantly cutting fossil fuel research and closing two facilities, said Energy Secretary Steven Chu. Chu said that the budget proposal, which will be released Monday, would cut the Office of Fossil Energy by 45 percent, or $418 million. That includes eliminating the Fuels Program, the Fuel Cells Program, the Oil and Gas Research and Development Program and the Unconventional Fossil Technology Program. The budget would also save $70 million by reducing funding for the hydrogen technology program in the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. The administration would also end operations at the Tevatron facility at Fermi National Laboratory in Illinois, saving $35 million, an...
