Business and society: stakeholders, ethics, public policy (11th ed )

Business and Society: Stakeholder Relations, Ethics and Public Policy by Lawrence/Weber/Post, has continued through several successive author teams to be the market-leader in its field. For over thirty years, Business and Society has been updated and reinvented in response to society's relationship to business. Business and Society, 11e highlights why government regulation is sometimes required as well as new models of business-community collaboration. Business and Society, 11e is a book with a point of view. Lawrence, Weber and Post believe that businesses have social (as well as economic) responsibilities to society, that business and government both have important roles to play in the modern economy, and that ethics and integrity are essential to personal fulfillment and to business success. The book is designed to be easily modularized, an instructor who wishes to focus on a particular portion of the material may select individual chapters or cases to be packaged in a Primis custom product.
