    New Corporate Forms and Green Business
    (2013) Page, Antony
    You want to start a business: not just an ordinary business, producing ordinary social benefit, but a dual-mission business that will both make a profit and benefit the environment.

You’re optimistic, in that you hope the business will find outside investors and will scale up easily. Moreover, you don’t want to lie or even dissemble about your motives or about the business’s actions. You want to be both authentic and transparent. This Article looks at whether and how law, by means of recently enacted corporate organizational forms—benefit corporations, flexible purpose corporations and social purpose corporations—can help.

    (2014) Page, Antony; Robert H. McKinney School of Law
    Much has been written on the legal causes of the financial crisis and its aftermath, often referred to as the Great Recession. Presumably the debate will continue for many years to come, much as scholars continue to debate the causes of the Great Depression. Lost, however, in the descriptions of arcane laws and complex derivative financial products, is a relatively brief and straightforward account of the crisis and its most likely causes for interested lawyers, law students, or graduate students who are not specialists and do not want to become specialists. This Essay, based on a presentation at the Indiana Law Review’s 2013 Symposium, Law and the Financial Crisis, aims to provide such an overview.
