ECON 315 - Business and Government


This course focuses on how businesses interact with government and society. Government (executive, legislative, regulatory, judicial, and international governments) and society (societal institutions, news media, and public sentiment) affect how firms conduct business, and businesses must develop political/nonmarket strategies to interact effectively with government and society that are integrated with their market strategies for economic profits. The international business, government and society interaction is contrasted between the USA and Japan, the European Union, and China. Case studies are used extensively.
