Subnational insolvency is a reoccurring event in development, as demonstrated by historical and modern episodes of subnational defaults in both developed and developing countries. Insolvency procedures become more important as countries decentralize expenditure, taxation, and borrowing, and broaden subnational credit markets. As the first cross-country survey of procedures to resolve subnational financial distress, this paper has particular relevance for decentralizing countries. The authors explain central features and variations of subnational insolvency mechanisms across countries. They identify judicial, administrative, and hybrid procedures, and show how entry point and political factors drive their design. Like private insolvency law, subnational insolvency procedures predictably allocate default risk, while providing breathing space for orderly debt restructuring and fiscal adjustment. Policymakers' desire to mitigate the tension between creditor rights and the need to maintain essential public services, to strengthen ex ante fiscal rules, and to harden subnational budget constraints are motivations specific to the public sector.

This work contains a comprehensive presentation of liquidation according to section 84 Inso in the event of an insolvency debtor's participation in a community or company. This work also focuses on the insolvency-related features resulting from the liquidation procedure. In addition, the very role of the insolvency administrator in each phase of the liquidation is called into question. Various problem areas are identified and the procedure is evaluated in terms of its legal efficiency. The focal point of the evaluation is the question of how solutions suitable for daily practice can be applied

"Reinventing Bankruptcy Law explodes conventional wisdom about the history of the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act and in its place offers the first historical account of Canada's premier corporate restructuring statute. The book adopts a novel research approach that combines legal history, socio-legal theory, ideas from political science, and doctrinal legal analysis. Meticulously researched and multi-disciplinary, Reinventing Bankruptcy Law provides a comprehensive and concise history of CCAA law over the course of the twentieth century, framing developments within broader changes in Canadian institutions including federalism, judicial review, and statutory interpretation. Examining the influence of private parties and commercial practices on lawmaking, Virginia Torrie argues that CCAA law was shaped by the commercial needs of powerful creditors to restructure corporate borrowers, providing a compelling thesis about the dynamics of legal change in the context of corporate restructuring. Torrie exposes the errors in recent case law to devastating effect and argues that courts and the legislature have switched roles. This book is essential reading for the Canadian insolvency community as well as those interested in Canadian institutions, legal history, and the dynamics of change."--

Es ist das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit, einen kompakten Überblick über die landwirtschaftsspezifischen Frage- und Problemstellungen im Rahmen eines Insolvenzverfahrens zu verschaffen. Die Arbeit soll dem Insolvenzverwalter, dem Landwirt sowie Beratern in der Landwirtschaft die für eine Landwirtschaftsinsolvenz erforderlichen Kenntnisse verschaffen und die Sensibilität in diesem Bereich fördern. Die Untersuchungen sollen zudem zeigen, welche Möglichkeiten der Insolvenzverwalter und die Gläubiger haben, das Verfahren zu gestalten und welche Risiken, Haftungsprobleme und Vorschriften in diesem Zusammenhang zu beachten sind.
