This seminar will explore comparative corporate governance and contemporary issues pertinent to corporate law. While introducing Taiwan’s legal rules and first principles governing corporations’ operation, finance, and relations between shareholders and the management in a corporation, this seminar will in the beginning discuss economic fundamentals and essential concepts of U.S. corporate law, as well as from time to time make comparison between the U.S. and Taiwanese models. We'll shed light on recent trends in sustainability, ESG (environmental, social & corporate governance) issues and corporate social responsibility as well.

Course Description: This seminar will explore comparative corporate governance and contemporary issues pertinent to corporate law. While introducing Taiwan’s legal rules and first principles governing corporations’ operation, finance, and relations between shareholders and the management in a corporation, this seminar will in the beginning discuss economic fundamentals and essential concepts of U.S. corporate law, as well as from time to time make comparison between the U.S. and Taiwanese models. Understanding the basics of economic analysis and U.S. corporate law – besides being interesting – is also helpful in anticipating future changes to the Taiwanese law. We'll shed light on recent trends in sustainability, ESG (environmental, social & corporate governance) issues and corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) as well. Grades in this seminar are based on the quality of a research paper on a topic of your choice that is relevant to this seminar, and on class participation (including performance of designated discussion leaders and presentations of your research topic). 2. References: The course materials are those to be assigned and distributed to you bit by bit in class. 3. Teaching Methods: This course is a seminar, and enrollment is usually capped lower than in an ordinary course. For that reason, active and significant student participation in class discussion is essential. I expect students to participate actively – not just answer when called on, but proactively talk about their thoughts and insights regarding the topics we discuss (in light of the assigned reading and any independent research students may have done on the subject). In the middle of the semester, students should make a topic presentation; at the end of the semester, they should make a presentation on their chosen topic and complete their final paper. 4. Syllabus: (1) Fundamentals of U.S. Corporate Law: Introduction to Legal and Economic Views of Business Associations (2) An Overview of the Regulatory framework and Market Conditions in the Greater Chinese Economy (3) Functions of the Board of Directors and the Role of Independent Directors (4) CSR: An International Dimension (5) What is the Media's Role in Corporate Governance? 5. Evaluation: Grades will be based upon class preparation and participation (50%) as well as the research papers (50%). Note that the research papers include the final paper (40%), topic presentation (5%) and final paper presentation (5%).
