Summary

In a global economy, where many external forces play upon the business corporation, which of these forces are ethically as well as economically important? This penetrating study explores the twenty-year history of the 'corporate responsibility movement, ' and the problems that both corporate business managers and leaders of what the authors call corporate 'constituencies' will confront over the rest of the century, as they seek their respective overlapping and conflicting goals.
