Insider Trading
Cambridge University Press (Verlag)
978-1-316-60340-6 (ISBN)
As long as insider trading has existed, people have been fixated on it. Newspapers give it front page coverage. Cult movies romanticize it. Politicians make or break careers by pillorying, enforcing, and sometimes engaging in it. But, oddly, no one seems to know what's really wrong with insider trading, or - because Congress has never defined it - exactly what it is. This confluence of vehemence and confusion has led to a dysfunctional enforcement regime in the United States that runs counter to its stated goals of efficiency and fairness. In this illuminating book, John P. Anderson summarizes the current state of insider trading law in the US and around the globe. After engaging in a thorough analysis of the practice of insider trading from the normative standpoints of economic efficiency, moral right and wrong, and virtue theory, he offers concrete proposals for much-needed reform.
John P. Anderson is a professor at the Mississippi College School of Law. He practiced in the areas of Securities Enforcement and White Collar Criminal Law at the Washington, DC law firms of Eversheds Sutherland and Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale & Dorr before entering academia. Anderson has won numerous teaching awards and has published several articles in top law reviews and peer review journals on the topics of insider trading, legal and political philosophy, and business ethics. He received a Ph.D. in Philosophy and a J.D. from the University of Virginia, and a B.A. in Philosophy from the University of California, Berkeley.
