The author analyzes the reasons for this passivity, pointing to conflicts of interest with respect to corporate governance activity in pension plans and also to limitations in corporate, securities, and pension law. He argues that plan members should be given a voice in pension plan governance and the plans made accountable, and he outlines the legal reforms necessary. 606 $aPension trusts$xInvestments 606 $aSocial responsibility of business 606 $aInstitutional investments$xSocial aspects 606 $aCorporate governance 606 $aPension trusts$xManagement 606 $aInstitutional investors 606 $aRe?gimes prive?s de retraite$xInvestissements 606 $aEntreprises$xResponsabilite? sociale 606 $aInvestissements institutionnels$xAspect social 606 $aGouvernement d'entreprise 606 $aRe?gimes prive?s de retraite$xGestion 606 $aInvestisseurs institutionnels 615 0$aPension trusts$xInvestments. 615 0$aSocial responsibility of business. 615 0$aInstitutional investments$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aCorporate governance. 615 0$aPension trusts$xManagement. 615 0$aInstitutional investors. 615 6$aRe?gimes prive?s de retraite$xInvestissements. 615 6$aEntreprises$xResponsabilite? sociale. 615 6$aInvestissements institutionnels$xAspect social. 615 6$aGouvernement d'entreprise. 615 6$aRe?gimes prive?s de retraite$xGestion. 615 6$aInvestisseurs institutionnels. 676 $a332.67/254 700 $aDavis$b Ronald$f1947-$0768184 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780848703321 996 $aDemocratizing pension funds$93868907 997 $aUNINA
