Abstract

In recent times, there has been an increasing debate between various scholars, researchers, and academicians as regards which approach-shareholder-centric or stakeholder-centric-would be in the long-term interest of on organization. A number of arguments have been put forward both for and against each of these viewpoints. In this article, based on a preliminary literature review, an attempt has been made to highlight the viewpoints of various scholars about each of these approaches. Also, the supremacy of the stakeholder view of the firm as highlighted by many scholars has been identified and stated. The paper concludes with further areas of research which would facilitate gaining greater clarity regarding these two viewpoints.
