Vices and Virtues of Corporate Political Activity
批判性审视企业政治活动文献，指出将政治活动仅视为盈利战略可能鼓励企业反社会行为，并借鉴精神病学与美德理论，提出更关注道德问题的新研究方向。
The authors give a critical reading of the research interests of state-of-the-art corporate political activity (CPA) literature. They demonstrate that a noncritical tendency in the literature to view CPA as a strategic activity, aimed at making profit, may encourage firms to sociopathic behavior in their political activities. Using psychiatric literature, the authors explore the nature of sociopathic CPA. They draw on a recent discussion initiated by virtue theorists, exploring firm moral agency in order to suggest the opening of several new research areas, within CPA literature, more sensitive to moral questions.
