EDWARD
B. ROCK L’83 was named the inaugural Saul
A. Fox Distinguished Professor of Business Law in September, a
chair established in honor of a 1978 graduate of the Law School. Rock,
as Co-Director of the Institute for Law and Economics (ILE) with Michael
L. Wachter, organized a two-day international conference on “Norms
and Corporate Law” which explored the relationship between law and
non-legally enforceable norms in the governance of business organizations.
Over 100 scholars from around the world participated, as did nearly
all of the members of the Delaware Supreme and Chancery Courts. Rock
and Wachter’s paper, “Islands of Conscious Power” was presented at
the symposium and, along with the other papers presented, will be
published in the Spring 2001 symposium issue of the University of
Pennsylvania Law Review. Rock also presented “Islands of Conscious
Power” at Harvard Law School and Vanderbilt Law School, and was an
invited commentator at an April 2001 conference on the “Role of Judges
in Corporate and Securities Law” at the University of Michigan Law
School. |
