Abstract
To a casual observer, hostile corporate takeovers may seem as pointless and destructive a form of modern warfare as the Iran/Iraq conflict. "Raiders" strike with bear hugs, junk bonds, and two-tier tender offers. Incumbent managers respond with poison pills, greenmail payments, shark repellents, and golden parachutes. Congress is wearying of the strife, and may soon impose a cease-fire on the combatants -but to whose benefit?
