A
group
of
distinguished
scholars
take
up
the
familiar
theme
of
corporate
governance,
casting
it
in
the
light
of
a
developing
and
comprehensive
complex
of
corporate,
market
and
concomitant
regulating
and
economic
changes
that
most
of
the
world's
industries
have
experienced
since
the
eighties
of
the
previous
century.
In
this
timely
handbook,
they
explore
this
critical
issue
with
distance
and
nuance.
A
broad
spectrum
of
issues
is
discussed,
which
cover
the
main
subjects
of
discussion
in
academia,
such
as
the
need
for
multiple
methodological
and
multiple
theoretical
approaches
in
order
to
study
this
domain
and
is
at
the
same
time
of
practical
relevance,
because
it
deals
with
issues
like
board
evaluation,
board
effectiveness,
innovation,
strategy,
the
need
for
and
developments
in
regulation
and
the
connection
of
corporate
governance
to
corporate
social
responsibility
and
sustainability.
This
well-written
book
puts
corporate
governance
developments
explicitly
in
their
economic,
global,
and
legal
context
and
ends
with
dilemmas
policy
makers
and
managers
or
executives
are
faced
with
and
finally
discusses
emerging
issues
of
governance
and
sustainability

[The SAGE Handbook of Corporate Governance] is a mine of practical and relevant thinking to be quarried by all with an interest in the governance of corporations. It is monumental in scope, but it looks to the past only as a guide to the future. In essence, the Handbook represents a work in progress. It is a beginning not an end and is the base from which the further development of corporate governance will be chronicled
