An Ethical Analysis of Organizational Power at Salomon Brothers
以迈克尔·刘易斯的《说谎者的扑克牌》为素材,结合马基雅维利的《君主论》框架,对投资银行中的真实商业行为进行道德分析,为改革提供建议。
Michael Lewis’ book, Liar's Poker, presents a scary picture of behavior within the investment community. While this portrayal is interesting in its own right, it presents us with an opportunity to subject real business behavior to analysis and suggestions for reform. As such, the issues raised here transcend a mere review of the book's plot and prose. Real business behavior, described in gory detail by Lewis, will provide the basis for a moral analysis. Machiavelli's The Prince will provide the framework for most of this analysis.
