  • Repurposing Economies—And Businesses”
    “Repurposing economies—and businesses” By: Colm Kelly, Global Leader—Tax and Legal Services and Global Leader—Purpose, PwC Introduction This article is an invitation. It is an invitation to debate, challenge, supplement and evolve the content. But most of all, it is an invitation to recognise the need for fundamental systemic change to the manner in which our economies interact with our societies and to consider some of the primary elements of such change and how they might be developed and adapted to allow our “system” to function more effectively. The case for change, and the basis on which this has come about, has been considered in some detail elsewherei — and will not be repeated. This piece will focus on a deeper understanding of the changes to the basic premise and assumptions underpinning the way in which our economies and businesses have been designed to operate for many decades (and indeed beyond), and therefore a deeper understanding of what needs to change, and how, if we are to bring about greater alignment between business, economies and the societies within which they operate. How can we reconcile two apparently conflicting scenarios? 1. It is fair to say that we have seen massive 2.

  • Bad Agent, Good Citizen?
    BAD AGENT, GOOD CITIZEN? Claire Hill,* Brett McDonnell** & Aaron Stenz*** INTRODUCTION Lawyers are agents for their principals—their clients.1 The Restatement (Third) of Agency sets forth an agent’s duty: “[A]n agent has a fiduciary duty to act loyally for the principal’s benefit in all matters connected with the agency relationship.”2 A good agent is a loyal agent. The Restatement also sets forth several important components of the duty: “An agent has a duty not to acquire a material benefit from a third party in connection with transactions conducted or other actions taken on behalf of the principal or otherwise through the agent’s use of the agent’s position.”3 Further, “[a]n agent has a duty not to deal with the principal as or on behalf of an adverse party in a transaction connected with the agency relationship.”4 A lawyer who violates these duties is a bad agent, in breach of her fiduciary duty of loyalty to her principal.5 Lawyers also have professional obligations to the broader society. Notably, they cannot help their clients commit crimes, nor can they be party to their client’s concealment of crimes.6 Even consistent with those obligations, and certainly in gray areas (such as avoiding inconvenient knowledge),7 whether they are being good agents or bad agents for their clients, lawyers can help—or harm—the broader society.8 * Professor and James L.

  • New Religious Movements
    New Religious Movements New Religious Movements: Challenge and response is a searching and wide-ranging collection of essays on the contemporary phenomenon of new religions. The contributors to this volume are all established specialists in the sociology, theology, law, or the history of new minority movements. The primary focus is the response of the basic institutions of society to the challenge which new religious movements represent. The orientation of this volume is to examine the way in which new movements in general have affected modern society in areas such as economic organisation; the operation of the law; the role of the media; the relationship of so-called ‘cult’ membership to mental health; and the part which women have played in leading or supporting new movements. Specific instances of these relationships are illustrated by reference to many of the most prominent new religions – Hare Krishna, The Brahma Kumaris, The Unification Church, The Jesus Army, The Family’, The Church of Scientology, and Wicca. For students of religion or sociology, New Religious Movements is an invaluable source of information, an example of penetrating analysis, and a series of thought-provoking contributions to a debate which affects many areas of contemporary life in many parts of the world. Contributors: Eileen Barker, James Beckford, Anthony Bradney, Colin Campbell, George Chryssides, Peter Clarke, Paul Heelas, Massimo Introvigne, Lawrence Lilliston, Gordon Melton, Elizabeth Puttick, Gary Shepherd, Colin Slee, Frank Usarski, Bryan Wilson. Bryan Wilson is an Emeritus Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford. He is the author and editor of several books on sects and New Religious Movements.

Datta1* 1 Professor Emeritus, Northern KY University, Highland Heights, KY 41099, USA * Y. Datta, Professor Emeritus, Northern KY University, Highland Heights, KY 41099, USA Received: May 15, 2021 Accepted: May 27, 2021 Online Published: May 31, 2021 doi:10.22158/jepf.v7n3p153 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.22158/jepf.v7n3p153 Abstract This paper is an attempt at a critique of Milton Friedman’s article titled: “A Friedman doctrine—The Social Responsibility of Business is to Increase Its Profits” published in the New York Times Magazine fifty years ago. The publication of this doctrine sparked a revolution. Ronald Reagan found it a powerful platform from which to launch his radical free-market agenda. The event marked a turning point when America embarked on a journey towards unfettered capitalism. Encouraged by the Friedman doctrine American CEOs chose a path toward profit maximization/maximizing shareholder value: a mindset that favored risk aversion and a short-term focus on cost reduction vs. long-term need for innovation, quality and customer satisfaction. And it is this historic psychological shift that has contributed so much to America’s industrial decline. Economic inequality in America has been going up persistently since 1974, squeezing the middle class. America’s income inequality has now widened so much that it rivals the highest level recorded in 1928 that led to the Great Depression of 1929.

  • 1980 Friedman Doctrine
    From The Collected Works of Milton Friedman, compiled and edited by Robert Leeson and Charles G. Palm. "The Friedman Doctrine" by Robert McKenzie, J.M. Pick, and Dr. Peter Howells The Listener, 8 May 1980 © Immediate Media Company London Limited SIR: May I add three points to Peter Jay’s very interesting article on Professor Milton Friedman (THE LISTENER, 1 May). As Jay indicates, I chaired, at the University of Chicago, nine discussions for American television based on Friedman’s Free to Choose films, which paralleled Jay’s own six-part discussion on BBC television here. (1) Friedman readily acknowledges that he is not a Conservative; and that he is especially scornful regarding the British Conservative tradition as developed from Disraeli’s Crystal Palace speech through the post-’45 policies adumbrated in particular by R. A. Butler and Harold Macmillan. Friedman considers this ‘One Nation’ tradition to be unacceptably paternalistic and far too preoccupied with the use of state power, in Disraeli’s phrase, ‘to elevate the condition of the people’. (2) Professor Friedman is, of course, in British terms, a classical 19th-century Liberal, deeply committed to the modern application of the ideas of Adam Smith. Like a true Manchester Liberal, he is opposed to anything that interferes with the operation of the ‘invisible hand’, whether it be factory legislation, the limitation of hours of work, minimum wages, social welfare legislation, or any other attempt to use the power of the state to advance the welfare of the people. (3) While Friedman is personally very charming and a most skilful proponent of his own ideas, he is also as dogmatic in advancing these ideas as any Marxist.

  • Friedman's Legacy How Milton Friedman's Doctrine
    Friedman’s Legacy How Milton Friedman’s Doctrine Affected How People Communicated with and Ran Their Business Alex Choi Korea International School Abstract: When choosing the topic to fit under the theme, communication, there were a wide variety of topics and ideas to select from, and many questions I wanted to find the answer to and dive deeper into. One topic I was intrigued by was how businesses have evolved over time into what it is today. When I was conducting initial research just to decide on a final topic, I settled on Milton Friedman, specifically his Friedman Doctrine. I had been interested in business and economics for a long time, and Friedman is an important figure in business, so that is why I decided to use his doctrine for my topic. Friedman was an expert economist who was widely known for his economic theories and research on stockholders and consumption. When the brainstorming process was complete, the strategy was to find more broad sources about Friedman, as well as how businesses were being run at the time. After I found these broader sources from online databases and libraries, a lot of them had bibliographies with many other sources. These were sources specific enough to fulfill my needs and had what I was looking for, which was the connection between Milton Friedman, economics, and communi- cation, the theme of this year’s National History Day. It was overall a complicated but successful creation process and ended up well. For the communication angle of my paper, in the 1900s, there was a lot of com- munication happening due to the Friedman Doctrine when there were more discussions and debates between economists and business leaders when it came to Friedman's beliefs It was included in the paper that there were many discussions among economists about how the way businesses were being run could change in the future.

    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE, COMPLIANCE, SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, AND ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT IN THE TRUMP/PENCE ERA Marcia Narine Weldon* [T]here is one and only one social responsibility of business—to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits so long as it stays within the rules of the game, which is to say, engages in open and free competition without deception and fraud. - Milton Friedman, 19701 INTRODUCTION With Republicans controlling Congress, a Republican CEO as President, a “czar” appointed to oversee deregulation,2 and billionaires leading key Cabinet posts, corporate America had reason for optimism following President Trump’s unexpected election in 2016. However, the first year of the Trump Administration has not yielded the kinds of re- sults that many business people had originally anticipated.

  • The Problem with Predators
    The Problem with Predators June Carbone and William K. Black ABSTRACT Both corporate theory and sex discrimination law start with presumptions that CEOs seek to advance legitimate ends and design the internal organization of business enterprises to achieve such ends. Yet, a growing literature questions why CEOs and boards of directors nonetheless select for Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy, and toxic masculinity, despite the downsides associated with these traits. Three scholarly literatures—economics, criminology, and gender theory—draw on advances in psychology to shed new light on the construction of seemingly dysfunctional corporate cultures. They start by questioning the assumption that CEOs—even CEOs of seemingly mainstream businesses—necessarily seek to advance “legitimate” ends. Instead, they suggest that a persistent issue is predation: the exploitation of asymmetries in information and power to the disadvantage of shareholders, creditors, customers, or employees. These literatures then explore how such CEOs may rationally choose to employ seemingly dysfunctional practices, such as “masculinity contests,” which reward employees more likely to buy into ethically dubious activities that range from predatory lending to sexual harassment. This Article maintains that questioning the presumption of legitimacy has profound and largely unexplored implications for corporate theory and anti-discrimination law. It extends the theory of “control fraud” central to white-collar criminology to a new concept of “control predation” that includes conduct that is ethically objectionable, if not necessarily illegal. This Article concludes that only by questioning the legitimacy of these practices in business terms can gender theory adequately address women’s workplace equality.
