The changes made in the sixth edition are geared to better meet the needs of instructors and students. <p><p> Four changes deserve specific mention: Latest Legislative and Administrative Developments: As you might expect, over the past few years, the law in the United States and within the international community has evolved, and exciting dimensions of the business/law dynamic have developed. This edition also captures the latest developments in legislative (e.g., the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016) and administrative fronts. Current Cases: The sixth edition includes recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions (several from 2017) as principal cases, along with new cases from other federal courts and various state courts. More Graphical Presentations: A host of new tables, exhibits, and other visual depictions of important concepts are included in this new edition.

The sixth edition continues our tradition of offering an expansive text that presents, in an interesting manner, the fascinating and ever-changing world of law within the business community.

Business Improvement Districts in the United States: Private Government and Public Consequences
by Abraham UngerThis book examines how privatization has transformed cities, particularly through the role of Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) in the revitalization of America’s downtown. These public-private partnerships between property owners and municipal government have developed retail strips across the United States into lifestyle and commercial hubs. BIDs are non-profit community organizations with the public power to tax and spend on services in their districts, but they are unelected bodies often operating in the shadows of local government. They work as agents of economic development, but are they democratic? What can we learn from BIDs about the accountability of public-private partnerships, and how they impact our lives as citizens? Unger explores these questions of local democracy and urban political economy in this age of rampant privatization and the reinvention of neighborhoods.
