The capitalist and the activist : corporate social activism and the new business of change / Tom C. W. Lin. by Lin, Tom C. W. Berrett-Koehler Publishers, 2022. Call #: 322.3 L735c Subjects Corporations -- Political activity.   Business and politics.   Social responsibility of business.   Capitalism -- Social aspects.   Social change. ISBN:  9781523091997 (hc) Description:  xiii, 203 p. ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "Today, corporations and their executives are at the front lines of some of the most important and contentious social and political issues of our time, such as voting rights, gun violence, racial justice, immigration reform, climate change, and gender equality. Why is this sea change in business and activism happening? How should executives and activists engage one another to create meaningful progress? What are potential pitfalls and risks for each side? What can they learn from each other? What first principles should guide leaders moving forward? The Capitalist and the Activist offers an engaging and thoughtful look at the new reality of corporate social activism -- its driving forces, promises and perils, and implications for our businesses and personal lives. Weaving deep research and fascinating stories that span business, entertainment, history, science, and politics, Tom Lin provides an insightful road map for how society arrived here and a practical compass for moving forward. Drawing together examples from the civil rights movement, campaign finance litigation, gun regulation, Black Lives Matter, the Confederate flag controversy, the Trump presidency, and other historical events, Lin brilliantly reveals and charts the course for a changing society of capitalists and activists seeking both profit and progress."--Publisher.
