Notwithstanding the myriad forms of government assistance to
American business, the relationship of business to politics in the
United States remains a highly antagonistic one, characterized by
substantial mutual distrust. This adversarial relationship is both
reflected and reinforced not only in American business ideology,
but also in America's unique legalistic and confrontational style
of regulation, the political strategies of the public interest
movement, the American approach to American industrial policy, and
the distinctive way Americans think about the subject of business
ethics. This volume brings together more than two decades of
scholarship on business and politics by one of the leading
authorities on this subject. These essays also explore a number of
critical contemporary issues, including the ongoing debate over the
scope and extent of business power in America, the growth of
shareholder protests and consumer boycotts, the changing politics
of consumer and environmental regulation, and the emergence of both
public and business interest in business ethics. In addition, they
place the contemporary dynamics of American business-government
relations in both an historical and comparative context. Finally
these essays demonstrate e the importance of integrating the study
of business by political scientists with the study of politics by
students of management. Originally published in 1996. The Princeton
Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again
make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished
backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the
original texts of these important books while presenting them in
durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton
Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly
heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton
University Press since its founding in 1905.
