Research in Corporate Political Action
综述了企业政治行动的文献,整合九种基础社会科学理论,描述了企业参与政治行动的特征、动机和方法,并指出文献较少涉及时间变化和情境因素,引导未来研究方向。
This article reviews the literature on corporate political action (CPA), integrating the perspectives of nine basic social science theories. Theoretical and empirical research grounded in these nine theories have described the characteristics of firms that engage in CPA (who), their rationale (why), and their methods (how). To a much lesser extent, the literature has also addressed how CPA changes over time (when) and the settings in which CPA is done (where). Reexamining the CPA literature this way directs us toward fundamental research questions that have not yet been addressed.
