    Notes: Résumé/〉:  La reconnaissance progressive acquise au cours des années 1970 et 1980 par le tiers secteur associatif oeuvrant en santé et services sociaux au Québec ne peut être dissociée, d’une part, d’une prise de conscience par les acteurs politiques et administratifs, des limites du providentialisme et, d’autre part, des luttes menées par les acteurs de ce tiers secteur pour imposer leurs principes d’action au sein du système sociosanitaire. Cette reconnaissance s’est cristallisée autour d’une structure institutionnelle particulière: le Programme de soutien aux organismes communautaires (PSOC), un programme de financement permettant aux associations d’obtenir des subventions sur la base d’un financement pour leur mission globale. Les modalités originales de ce programme ont ainsi permis l’articulation, au sein du système sociosanitaire québécois, de modes de coordination axés sur le principe de l’efficacité technocratique avec d’autres principes tels la réciprocité, la participation et l’innovation. Cet agencement de différents modes de coordination et des dispositifs institutionnels qui le soutiennent constituent un élément important de l’originalité du modèle québécois de développement social en Amérique du Nord.

    Incentive Regulation and Efficient Pricing (2005)

    Notes: Abstract**:  One objective of introducing incentive regulation to the newly privatized UK utilities over the past 20 years was to encourage efficient pricing structures. Caps have been imposed on average price levels, giving firms freedom to rebalance amongst prices within the basket. We test how firms have responded to the incentives within such discretion through an extensive review of the relative prices charged within UK price capped industries. We find surprisingly little response to these incentives, suggesting that strategic behaviour dominates short-term profit incentives even after the introduction or threat of competition.

    Deviant or Different? Corporate Governance in Japan and Germany (2005)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd.
    Corporate governance 13 (2005), S. 0

    Notes: There are good reasons for national differences in corporate governance, differences in the distributional outcomes desired and differences in motivational resources; material sticks and carrots are not the only ways of keeping top managers efficient, honest and dynamic. Yet, too often discussions of corporate governance assume the Anglo-Saxon model to be normal and others “deviant”– a notion to be challenged, but nevertheless the dominant assumption among the “reformers” of corporate governance in Japan and Germany. Most of the reforms in those two countries over the past decade have purported to be about making top managers more honest and efficient. In fact their purport has more often been to change distributional outcomes, favouring shareholders at the expense of employees.

    Corporate Governance, Family Ownership and Firm Value: the Canadian evidence (2005)

    Notes: We analyse the relationship between firm value, as measured by Tobin's q, and newly released indices of effective corporate governance for a sample of 263 Canadian firms. The results indicate that corporate governance does matter in Canada. However, not all elements of measured governance are important, and the effects of governance do differ by ownership category. For the entire sample of firms we find no evidence that a total governance index affects firm performance. This is mainly because we find no evidence that board independence, the most heavily-weighted sub-index, has any positive effect on firm performance. Indeed, for family-owned firms we find that the effect is negative. In general, sub-indices measuring effective compensation, disclosure and shareholder rights practices enhance performance and this is true for most ownership types. We also find no evidence that governance practices are endogenous.

    Corporate Governance, Leadership Structure and CEO Compensation: evidence from Taiwan (2005)

    Notes: Agency theorists have put forth a number of internal control mechanisms that can reduce agency problems. These different mechanisms are substitutive and thus it is thought that both the board of directors and large external shareholders can influence CEO compensation. Stewardship theory challenges the presumption of self-interest of agency theory, holding that managers view themselves as stewards of their organisation. The first objective of this paper is to study the influence of the control of the board of directors and large external shareholders on CEO compensation. The second objective is to utilise both stewardship and agency theory to analyse the relationship between control mechanisms and compensation, and to see which theory is more applicable. This paper uses the LISREL model to study the influence that the control of the board of directors and external large shareholders has upon CEO compensation, with data drawn from samples of listed manufacturing companies between the years 1997 and 1999 in Taiwan. The following conclusions are reached: (1) the paper supports the viewpoint of stewardship theory whereby the CEO acts as a steward of his/her company when he/she also holds the position of chairman of the company. (2) The findings show that CEO compensation will be high when the board's control is relatively ineffective. (3) The shareholdings of the board of directors can reinforce the degree of control from the board.

    Notes: This paper presents a new, holistic approach to corporate governance, adding simultaneous value to shareholders, customers, employees and society. This new approach to directing and controlling companies integrates components of corporate governance that have historically been treated in isolation of each other in research, teaching and practice.

    Do Board Processes Influence Director and Board Performance? Statutory and performance implications (2005)

    Notes: Based on British legislation, the duties of directors are stated in the New Zealand Companies Act 1993. However, “good” governance is not defined within the Act. Considering the relative importance attached by boards to a variety of governance tasks, this paper evaluates directors’ perceptions of the current contribution of fellow board members to different aspects of governance practice. This evaluation is discussed in relation to the influence of board tasks and functions on actions that may be regarded as being in the interests of the company as defined by the Act. The evaluation illustrates the strategic orientation of the board, highlighting the extent to which individual directors and the board as a whole can actually influence key outcomes and, thereby, their governance contribution. The paper reports responses to findings based on a study involving 3000 directors and presents suggestions for enhancing board processes as well as possible changes in expectations that could be encapsulated in legislation.
