Dick Department of English, June 2013. ADVISORS: Professors Katherine Lynes and Anastasia Pease As a literary genre, Cyberpunk permits the existence of characters, plots, settings, and styles that challenge heteronormative perceptions of gender. The representations of women in Neuromancer, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, and A Scanner Darkly highlight a progression towards feminist ideals.

Mirrorshade Women: Feminism and Cyberpunk

Mirrorshade Women: Feminism and Cyberpunk at the Turn of the Twenty-first Century Carlen Lavigne McGill University, Montréal Department of Art History and Communication Studies February 2008 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication Studies © Carlen Lavigne 2008 2 Abstract This study analyzes works of cyberpunk literature written between 1981 and 2005, and positions women’s cyberpunk as part of a larger cultural discussion of feminist issues. It traces the origins of the genre, reviews critical reactions, and subsequently outlines the ways in which women’s cyberpunk altered genre conventions in order to advance specifically feminist points of view. Novels are examined within their historical contexts; their content is compared to broader trends and controversies within contemporary feminism, and their themes are revealed to be visible reflections of feminist discourse at the end of the twentieth century. The study will ultimately make a case for the treatment of feminist cyberpunk as a unique vehicle for the examination of contemporary women’s issues, and for the analysis of feminist science fiction as a complex source of political ideas. Cette étude fait l’analyse d’ouvrages de littérature cyberpunk écrits entre 1981 et 2005, et situe la littérature féminine cyberpunk dans le contexte d’une discussion culturelle plus vaste des questions féministes. Elle établit les origines du genre, analyse les réactions culturelles et, par la suite, donne un aperçu des différentes manières dont la littérature féminine cyberpunk a transformé les usages du genre afin de promouvoir en particulier le point de vue féministe.

PRIORITIZING JUSTICE: COMBATING CORPORATE CRIME FROM TASK FORCE TO TOP PRIORITY MARY KREINER RAMIREZ* Inadequate law enforcement against corporate criminals appears to have created perverse incentives leading to an economic crisis—this time in the context of the subprime mortgage crisis. Prioritizing Justice proposes institutional reform at the Department of Justice (DOJ) in pursuing corporate crime. Presently, corporate crime is pursued nationally primarily through the DOJ Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force and other task forces, the DOJ Criminal Division Fraud Section, and the individual U.S. Attorneys‘ Offices. Rather than a collection of ad hoc task forces that seek to coordinate policy among a vast array of offices and agencies, a Corporate Crimes Division should be
Stock Market Capitalism: an Historical Perspective for the Two Decades Pre- and Post- 1980

Stock Market Capitalism: An Historical Perspective for the Two Decades Pre- and Post- 1980 Stakeholder Capitalism is surpassed by the Anglo-American style of Corporate Governance driven by the maxim of Shareholder Value Ümran DEMİRÖRS* October 19, 2017-İstanbul ABSTRACT This study analyzes the historical transformation of the “Modern Corporation” expounded by Berle and Means in the early 20th century for the two decades pre-and post-1980. The 80s made an indelible mark on the behavior of Households together with Corporate Managers and Institutional Money Managers toward the risk of holding stocks due to changing economic, political and regulatory settings, hence affecting “Corporate Governance”. The Modern Corporation in the pre-1980 period was envisaged to be a social institution managed by so-called benevolent, elite, managers in a corporate system of consensual decision making called “Stakeholder Capitalism”. In the ensuing decades of the post-1980 period after the Reagan administration’s drastic changes in economic, political and regulatory settings, the Modern Corporation transformed into a lean but over-valued “Contemporary Corporation” of “Stock Market * Dr. © Sosyal Siyaset Konferansları / Journal of Social Policy Conferences Sayı / Issue: 73 – 2017/2, 161-184 http://dergipark.gov.tr/iusskd 162 Ümran DEMİRÖRS Capitalism”, emboldened with the maxim of “Shareholder Value”. Interestingly, this over- valuation of stocks has resulted in the growth in Households wealth in equity holdings outperforming the growth in National Income, becoming an automatic stabilizer of Household Sector consumption patterns. In the following pages, developments in the Modern Corporation and its premises will be discussed thoroughly and some policy conclusions affected by this outstanding growth in Household Sector wealth will be drawn.

Societal, Managerial, and Legal Perspectives on Corporate Social Responsibility-Product and Process* By EDWIN M. EPSTEIN** Introduction The present symposium is concerned with corporate social respon- sibility as it relates to the "structure and governance of the modern American corporation." This focus is wise; for the public policy debate about whether and how to increase the social responsiveness and public accountability of the contemporary large business corporation in the 1980's, will, most likely, revolve around the interconnected issues of corporate structure and corporate governance. The symposium's con- tributors will examine the prospects for enhancing corporate respon- siveness and accountability through both the internal restructuring of the corporate governance process and the development of innovative methods of external social control. My assignment, however, is some- what different. The editors of this Journal have asked me to provide an analytical overview and framework on the concept of social responsi- bility which might aid the reader to better consider the thrust of the symposium.
