Description
For undergraduate and graduate courses in Business and Public Policy, Business and Society, or Business and Public Responsibility.
Businesses compete in many ways, including nonmarket areas like corporate responsibility. Learn how to sharpen your firm's competitive edge.
Baron's integrated approach combines the disciplines of economics, political science, law, and ethics to provide a deeper understanding of the managerial issues that arise in the business landscape.
The sixth edition retains the structure, much of the subject matter, and the conceptual frameworks of the fifth edition but adds two new chapters. The entire text has been updated with new conceptual materials and applications.
