I am happy to meet other times. You can always call me at 934-2797 or email me to set up a time. Email is a very good way to get to me, as I check every day. But that's not all.
Government also helps to create the conditions that make industrial competition possible.
Companies count on government to provide certain needs, such as an educated workforce, highways, and a policy on foreign trade. This course examines the interfaces between business and society, focusing particularly on public policy and the role of government. We attempt to address these questions in ways that will be useful to students as participants in the world of business, as members of government or non-profit agencies, or simply as citizens of a society where business and government are key players. We will look at theoretical and historical perspectives on these questions. Much of the course is built around large and small case studies of companies as diverse as General Electric, Ocean Spray, Malden Mills and Texaco, as well as case studies of specific policies.
