The
Rock Center for Corporate Governance Working Paper Series is a source of working papers authored by faculty on the empirical study of corporate governance. Advances in the understanding and practice of corporate governance are most likely to occur in a cross-disciplinary environment where economists, lawyers, financial experts, political scientists, engineers, and practitioners can meet and work together. The Rock Center's goal is to tap this wealth of expertise at Stanford University to advance the practice and study of corporate governance and become an important voice in the debate over governance, both domestically and internationally.
