Power, Policy and Profit investigates the many ways in which
corporate actors attempt to influence political activities. Through
the intensified globalization of markets, the restructuring of
welfare services and the accumulation of private capital,
opportunities for corporate influence in politics affairs are shown
to have multiplied. Bringing together different fields of global
governance studies, this book addresses the rising political
influence of corporate actors both nationally and internationally.
Corporate influence on policy is now commonplace through lobbying,
advocacy and campaign contributions; funding analysis and research;
creating or adopting standards for social responsibility and
shaping transparency guidelines. Key chapters show how corporations
can now have leverage in broad political affairs: an activity
central to the organization of markets. Power, Policy and Profit
will be of great interest to students and academics of business and
management, politics and governance studies. Policy professionals
will find this a timely read on the complexities of corporate
engagement in politics and governance. Contributors include: F.
