Management's Responsibility to Society: The Growth of an Idea

Author

Listed:
  • Heald, Morrell

Abstract

Even in laissez-faire days there was a “corporate conscience,” well defined and with active, if limited, manifestations. Over the course of years not only criticism but changing social forces and modifications of the economic system itself exerted a broadening influence on the attitude of American business toward its public responsibilities.
