Business and Society: Stakeholders, Ethics, Public Policy: 2026 Release (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781264871773)

In a world economy that is becoming increasingly integrated and interdependent, the relationship between business and society is becoming ever more complex. The globalization of business, the emergence of civil society organizations in many nations, and new government regulations and international agreements have significantly altered the job of managers and the nature of strategic decision making within the firm. In its 2026 release, the authors of Business and Society confronted a world in which the relationship between business and society is changing rapidly. Technological change, political polarization, barriers to immigration and trade, cultural shifts, and abrupt changes in legal and regulatory requirements upended many stakeholder relationships. It forced companies to respond in real time. The authors have extensively revised all chapters, including removing the previous chapter 4, and added new case studies using the most up-to-date research.
