The Myth Of Choice: Personal Responsibility In A World Of Limits, Kent Greenfield

Kent Greenfield

Americans are fixated on the idea of choice. Our political theory is based on the consent of the governed. Our legal system is built upon the argument that people freely make choices and bear responsibility for them. And what slogan could better express the heart of our consumer culture than "Have it your way"?

In this provocative book, Kent Greenfield poses unsettling questions about the choices we make. What if they are more constrained and limited than we like to think? If we have less free will than we realize, what are the implications for us as individuals and for …

The Origins And Costs Of Short-Term Management, Kent Greenfield

Kent Greenfield

Why is a fixation on the short term a problem for American businesses? One might hasten to answer that management is compensated for short-term successes. Another answer might be that some investors—particularly professional investors—value only the short term and manipulate the market in a particular stock so they can profit on the movement. These answers undoubtedly are part of the answer. But a puzzle remains: why does the market not punish such short-termism? This essay will present a possible answer.

Defending Stakeholder Governance, Kent Greenfield

Kent Greenfield

Corporations are collective enterprises, drawing on investments from various stakeholders who contribute to the firm's success. For a business to succeed over time, it must induce people and institutions to invest money, whether in the form of equity or loans. It must induce people to invest their labor, intelligence, skill, and attention by joining the firm as employees or managers. It must induce local communities to invest infrastructure of various kinds. None of these investors-for investors they all are-contributes its input out of altruism or obligation. They all do so because they believe that the corporation provides the mechanism for …
