Defending the Stockholder Model
本文综合两篇《商业伦理季刊》文章的观点，为股东模型作为有效的规范商业伦理理论提供实证支持，并指出其伦理本质是强权即公理，且其社会接受度是后现代现象。
Here I synthesize certain ideas presented in two different articles that appeared in the same issue of Business Ethics Quarterly. One article (Hasnas) invokes the stockholder model as a valid normative theory of business ethics, the other article (Dunfee) invokes a marketplace of morality. Both articles imply that the accepted financial-economic view of the firm is a view that can accommodate ethics. I offer empirical support for this view. I also identify the ethic of the stockholder model as a variant on might-makes-right and consider the social acceptance of this ethic as a postmodern phenomenon.
