Abstract:
During the late nineteenth century, as the “trust problem” occupied the attention of politicians and entrepreneurs across the nation, California farmers began an experiment that would irretrievably alter the form and function of agricultural marketing cooperatives. Taking a cue from the robber barons, leaders in the state's promising raisin industry set out to apply the advantages of corporation law—and of the modern trust—to the principles of cooperation. As early as 1899, the raisin industry's merger of corporation and cooperative caught the attention of the San Francisco Chronicle's agricul

Abstract:
A lack of female representation on corporate boards has plagued our country for decades. Until a few years ago, there was not a single state or federal regulation that required corporations to fill board seats with female directors. Instead, the federal government talked around the issue. In 2010, the SEC established an optional reporting structure for corporations to communicate their hiring practices, but did little else. With no national plan in place, many states implemented legislation that urged corporations to hire female directors. But this legislation barely moved the needle. The coun

Abstract:
Public debate on mandating gender representation on boards of directors in the United States is close to a boiling point. California introduced a mandatory quota in 2018 only to see it constitutionally disqualified in 2022, and the Nasdaq Stock Market followed suit with new diversity rules in 2021 for all corporations listed on the exchange. While public discourse focuses on corporate performance, not much is known about the link between gender diversity and corporate normative obedience. In this study we explore the relationship between boardroom gender representation and corporate compliance

Abstract:
On May 10, 2011, a jury verdict in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California made California-based Lindsey Manufacturing Company the first company ever to be criminally convicted of violating the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA).1 In a press statement, the Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer of the U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ's) Criminal Division stated that ''Lindsey Manufacturing is the first company to be tried and convicted on FCPA violations, but it will not be the last.''

_ Early January brought with it significant changes in the environmental side of the oil and gas industry. ExxonMobil and Chevron, the two largest US oil producers, announced they will exit California, and the Biden administration froze LNG export approvals. After 50 years of producing oil in California, ExxonMobil will take a $2.5 billion writedown of the value of some of its California properties to be recorded in its fourth-quarter earnings.

This article gives an overview of current legal initiatives for enhanced transparency regulations for corporations and the actions they take against trafficking in human beings (THB). The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act (CTSCA) has an influence on legal initiatives in Europe, in particular in the United Kingdom. The UK's Modern Slavery Act includes the obligation for corporations to report on actions taken against THB and slavery. In addition, at the European Union level, measures to enhance obligatory reporting on non-fnancial matters, such as human rights matters, are to be impl

Abstract:
While Mexico’s agricultural exports have rapidly expanded over the past two decades, a strike by farmworkers in San Quintín, Baja California, in 2015 drew attention to the labor problems and workers’ demands in the industry. In response, foreign agribusiness corporations implemented private labor standards through fair-trade labels to address these problems in their global produce supply chains. Based on ethnographic research, I argue that these private standards fail to improve farmworkers’ labor conditions and instead serve to “fairwash” fresh produce and to prevent union organizing even whe

Abstract:
Mexico is the largest soft drink market in the world, with high rates of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Due to strains on the nation’s productivity and healthcare spending, Mexican lawmakers implemented one of the world’s first public health taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) in 2014. Because Mexico’s tax was designed to reduce SSB consumption, it faced strong opposition from transnational food and beverage corporations.
