In this book, author Douglas M. Eichar presents readers with an examination of the twentieth century business trend of corporate social responsibility and its demise during the 1980s and 1990s.
He argues that the generosity of large corporations toward their employees and nonprofits was instrumental in keeping government regulation and the growth of labor unions in check until they
weren’t a factor any more and that the decline of government oversight and the power of unions at the end of the century led to the end of corporate social responsibility. The author is a
faculty member of the University of Hartford, Connecticut. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
