The Capitalist and the Activist
Author: Tom C. W. Lin
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 1523092556
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
2023 Axiom Business Books Award Silver Medalist (Business Commentary) 2023 Nautilus Book Award Silver Medalist (Social Change & Social Justice) This is the first in-depth examination of the important ongoing fusion of activism, capitalism, and social change masterfully told through a compelling narrative filled with vivid stories and striking studies. Corporations and their executives are at the forefront of some of the most contentious and important social issues of our time. Through pronouncements, policies, boycotts, sponsorships, lobbying, and fundraising, corporations are actively engaged in issues like immigration reform, gun regulation, racial justice, gender equality, and religious freedom. Despite corporate social activism being everywhere these days-witness how quickly companies and progressives united to oppose North Carolina's bathroom bill or support the Black Lives Matter movement-there has been no in-depth examination of the far-reaching consequences of this movement. What first principles should guide businesses' approaches? How should activists engage with businesses in a way that is most beneficial to their causes? What are potential pitfalls and risks associated with corporate social activism for activists, businesses, and society at large? Weaving studies and stories, Temple University professor of law, Tom C. W. Lin offers a road map for how we got here and a compass for where we are going as a nation of capitalists and activists seeking profit and progress.

Author: Harold T. Pinkett
Publisher: Urbana : University of Illinois Press

The legend that America was a land of unlimited natural wealth began in Columbus' time.

Today growing numbers of active conservationists are challenging the motive of commercial developers who seek to appropriate more forests. Harold Pinkett here describes and appraises the work of Gifford Pinchot (1865-1946), the man who initiated the challenge. Pinchott was the foremost American apostle of conservation, the first professionally trained American forester, and the chief agent in the introduction of scientific forestry into the woodlands of the United States. -- Jacket.
