摘要:
Stakeholder Theory (ST), presented by R. Edward Freeman, is a managerial theory which sees the firm as connected networks of stakeholder interests. The purpose of the firm in Freeman's theory is 'value creation and trade' and 'creation of value for each appropriate stakeholder' This article argues that although ST presents important insights, its view of the firm is incomplete and its vision of the purpose of the business in society needs to be refined.
