Challenge your understanding of corporate, securities, and financial law and regulation with this ground-breaking book.

Featuring incisive research from preeminent scholars in the field, this seminal work interrogates long-standing assumptions and beliefs that have remained unexamined for decades.

Taking a novel approach, the book serves as both a conceptual "deconstruction" and a foundation for future research directions. Each chapter delves deep into the often-overlooked origins, mechanics, and implications of outdated or misleading concepts (termed "fallacies") that form the backbone of contemporary corporate and securities laws, financial regulations, and related domains.

Beyond simply identifying these fallacies, the authors illustrate the profound implications of recalibrating our analytic perspectives. By expanding the spectrum of inquiry and moving along multiple continuums – such as public to private, micro to macro, transactional to structural, individual to systemic, and static to dynamic – this volume underscores the transformative potential of re-envisioning the fundamentals of these fields. An essential read, this book promises to be a catalyst for change and a must-have for anyone committed to staying at the forefront of law and policy.>/p>
