Donna Kline's contribution to the Sovietica series falls outside the strict confines of the study of Soviet Marxism-Leninism. It centers its attention on the seemingly minor question of Marx' knowledge of and attitude toward the legal theory and practice in vogue at the time he was writing studies that directly addressed issues of law and economics, and that indirectly helped to fashion the legal and economic behavior of Soviet-style regimes. That this question is not as minor or as irrelevant to Marxism-Leninism as it might seem at fIrst glance flows from Marx' obvious intent to do a thorough critique of all the vectors of 'bourgeois-capitalist' civilization and culture, clearly expressed in the many key texts, where 'legal relations' form at least part of the central focus. Marx' thought was forming when the 'bourgeois' law that had become self-conscious at the end of the 18th century was, following the French Revolution, trying to 'take possession' of the social-political consciousness of European-American culture, and fInding itself coming up against the 'vagaries' of economic quasi-anarchy. There is a sense in which the 'bourgeois-capitalist' efforts at developing a legal code for existing economic practice represent a sort of 'ideology in practice' to be applied to the same phenomena that Marx wanted to account for in his peculiarly Hegelian ideological critique.

During the last decade exploring the link between financial factors and investment has become a major field of theoretical and empirical publications. Firms in a weak financial position cannot raise capital at conditions that allow financing all profitable investment projects. Some empirical findings indicate that young, fast growing, low dividend paying firms face more liquidity constraints compared to other firms and therefore exhibit stronger reactions in investment to changes of their internal financial flow. If the credit conditions of firms will be influenced through expansionary or rather restrictive monetary conditions the cycle of real activity might be accelerated through these monetary conditions and the final effects might exceed the pure effects of the interest channel alone. In the analysis in hand the role of financial factors in the firm's investment decision is explored within the framework of the Q-theory of investment. The Q-theory is applied to a large database of German firms, covering balance sheet data for 2,314 German firms, thereof 1,342 manufacturing firms. This database, the Deutsche Bundesbank's Corporate Balance Sheet Statistics, gives the unique opportunity to analyze heterogeneity at the firm level, which is not possible using macro- or mesoeconomic data. Access to this data base was made possible during a stay at a visiting researcher in the research department at the Deutsche Bundesbank in 2002. I would like to thank Heinz Herrmann for his support and the fruitful discussions of questions arising during the research project.

Many large corporations delegate investment decision-making authority to their divisions. Because they are better informed, divisional managers should be able to make better decisions than corporate headquarters. However, they can use this informational advantage to pursue their own interests. The objective of this work is to analyze the problem of delegated decision-making within firms when investment projects are characterized by the possibility to make subsequent decisions after the initial investment decision has been made. By analyzing this question, the monograph combines and unifies two important lines of literature: on the one hand the literature on controlling investment decisions, on the other hand the investment valuation literature.
