Mark J. Roe is the David Berg Professor of Law at Harvard Law School, specializing in corporate law, bankruptcy, and corporate governance. He is renowned for his scholarly contributions, including seminal works such as *Missing the Target: Why Stock Market Short-Termism Is Not the Problem* (2022) and *Strong Managers, Weak Owners: The Political Roots of American Corporate Finance* (1994). His research critically examines the interplay between corporate law, political economy, and financial markets.
Roe’s current work focuses on corporate governance, bankruptcy law, and the transformation of public firms. Recent studies include analyzing the decline in public firms’ numbers while their economic influence has grown, as highlighted in his 2025 article *Half the Firms, Double the Profits* (co-authored with Charles C. Y. Wang). His articles often bridge legal analysis with economic and political frameworks, emphasizing systemic risks and regulatory policy.
His courses at Harvard Law School include *Bankruptcy* and *Bankruptcy and Corporate Restructuring: Current Issues*. He frequently contributes to policy debates through platforms like Project Syndicate, addressing topics such as stakeholder capitalism and the implications of corporate buybacks.
Roe’s publications span prestigious journals like the *Yale Journal on Regulation*, *Vanderbilt Law Review*, and *Harvard Business Law Review*. His work challenges conventional wisdom, such as debunking claims about stock-market-driven short-termism’s societal harm. Despite his prolific output, no formal scientific awards are explicitly mentioned in the provided texts.
