Abstract

This Spring marks the fourteenth consecutive year that public interest resolutions have appeared on the proxy statements of American corporations. The author of Lobbying the Corporation examines the evolution and the effects of politically oriented shareholder activism, focusing on the years since 1977, and also assesses how it has been affected by changes in business-government relations.
