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.
