What do you think is the main reason financial institutions repeatedly engage in misconduct – explain your reasons.

Select any one of the following five (5) questions and draft a response. You can use whatever we discussed in class, the readings and/or other independent research relating to law and economics and current events.

Do not be concerned with spelling/grammar/syntax – you will be graded on analyzing the issue and your arguments. The essay should be at least 1000 words but not more than 1500 words. You can include references (footnotes) and/or links but these do not count toward the word minimum. There is no specific font or spacing requirement although the recommended font size is 12 or 14. The essay is due 5 weeks after the last class – by May 8. Send your Essay to jslawotsky@idc.ac.il

Essay One: What should be the purpose of the publicly traded corporation? How does the shareholding structure (concentrated or dispersed) and the ensuing conflicts of interest impact on the question? Does the shareholder-value model and the likelihood of management-shareholder conflicts of interest affect the answer? If a corporation is not focused solely on profit-making and instead seeks to promote numerous stakeholders, how should directors/managers select an interest to promote if two or more interests exist at the same time?

Essay Two: What do you think is the main reason financial institutions repeatedly engage in misconduct – explain your reasons. With respect to the “revolving-door”, do you think the lure of a “big pay day” after government work discourages vigorous prosecution of corruption and may act to lessen the financial penalties (fines) imposed and what suggestions can you offer or is the “revolving door” unsolvable? Is there a difference between jurisdictions (shareholder versus stakeholder) with respect to any of the potential reasons or is this simply human nature?

Essay Three: Is vigorous shareholder-activism beneficial or negative on corporations and the economy? Japan’s economic performance has been lackluster and Japan has had its share of corporate scandals. Is the lack of vigorous shareholder activism in Japan detrimental to Japanese corporations and the economy? If other nations increase governmental ownership of shares and thus create an environment whereby activism is substantially reduced (or impossible) what effects will this have on corporations and overall economic performance?

Essay Four: In both the United States and China, the respective governments have acted to “bail out” important corporations which may contribute to a culture of excessive risk taking since the decision makers already know (or presume) that any serious losses will be “covered” thereby creating “moral hazards”. Are moral hazards different with respect to bailing out SOEs (state-capitalism model) versus bailing out TBTF private corporations (market-capitalism model)? Different between shareholder-value or stakeholder value models? How does national security/economic nationalism affect whether a government will tolerate moral hazards?

Essay Five: China’s state-capitalism model (state direction, industrial policies and subsidies to SOEs) has proven a competitor to the U.S. market-capitalism model and even has some Western admirers. Will market-capitalism nations be lured to (or be competitively forced to) incorporate aspects of state-capitalism to compete with competitors who provide their corporations with subsidies and state support? Or will the opposite occur with China instituting reforms of its state-owned sectors and incorporating aspects of market-capitalism? What are likely effects of each possibility?

In how many different ways does Shakespeare treat the theme of love in TN?

Paper Topic on Twelfth Night.

“If music be the food of love, play on, / Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, / The appetite may sicken, and so die” (1.1.1-3).

Duke Orsino utters these lines to open the play, and despite being about love (the central concern of TN), they are constructed to make love sound as if it is something he wants to get over (“die”), which seems rather strange for a lover. Likewise, near the end of Act 1, Olivia utters metaphorical lines about love as bubonic plague, which also seems strange. Are these upper-class characters attuned to feelings of genuine love, or does the strangeness of their expressions sound similar to infatuation? Do you wonder if either has actually been in love?

In how many different ways does Shakespeare treat the theme of love in TN? There is the obviously confused love triangle of Duke, Olivia, and Viola/Cesario, but also note that Antonio may love Sebastian romantically, and even the sub-plot world is connected to the theme. Sir Andrew is there to woo Olivia, but Toby draws him into constant drinking. Malvolio “loves” Olivia, but it’s hard to determine if his sour personality is even capable of romantic love. When Maria sets up Malvolio in 2.5, Toby comments in the aftermath, “I could marry this wench for this device” (183). In fact, the only main character personally untouched by the love bug is Feste, yet even he sings about love, and Andrew says he sent him “sixpence for thy leman” (meaning lover, sweetheart, or mistress). Choose as many different aspects of the love theme as you like and write an essay in which you determine Shakespeare’s attitude(s) to love.
