Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the rise and ubiquitous use of the corporate structure in the United States. The author traces the evolution of business entities from partnerships into corporations, highlighting the pivotal legal decision, 'Dartmouth College v. Woodward', that elevated corporations as entities with rights just like individuals. The book explains the advantages corporations offer: raising capital, permanence, centralized control, transferability of ownership and limited liability. The author discusses the disadvantages as well, which mostly involve increased expenses and limited powers. An overview of the legal status of corporations delineates the instruments that define and control corporations: the state constitution, general corporation acts, the charter, and by-laws. The book goes on to discuss the essential features of a charter, providing a sample charter for illustration. It also covers the importance of clearly stated corporate purposes in a charter and provides a real-world example of how an oversight in drafting this section resulted in a court case. The book concludes by highlighting the importance of by-laws, which provide permanent rules for conducting business and can include provisions on issuing and transferring stock, meetings of stockholders and directors, election of directors and officers, and general directions on managing corporate property.
