Features: Professor Liu Lianyu's book Corporate Monitoring and Social Responsibility aims to explore some fundamental issues in company law, such as: What are the principles behind the allocation of corporate monitoring rights? What responsibilities do corporate management have toward stakeholders beyond shareholders? How can stakeholders outside shareholders participate in corporate monitoring? Do the decision-makers of commercial companies have an obligation to consider the interests of the entire society and adjust their behavior accordingly? The intention is not merely to disseminate American corporate governance theories but to critically analyze foreign doctrines, examine local company law practices, explore the underlying structures of the law, and ultimately seek corporate governance models and social responsibility concepts compatible with the local environment. Throughout the book, we can see the author's mind oscillating between different traditions, business practices, and legal systems, occasionally sparking insights through collisions. This is a valuable monograph on company law that enriches knowledge and broadens perspectives.
