The continuing quest for accountable, ethical, and humane corporate capitalism

From their inception, the social issues in management (SIM) field and the SIM Division within the Academy of Management have provided venues to examine the complex, dynamic, 2-way relation between economic institutions of US society and the social systems which they operate. They have blended the normative with the scientific, the speculative with the empirical and the philosophical with the pragmatic. The field and the Division have served, perhaps most importantly, as the conscience of management education and the Academy. Their enduring quest and raison d'etre is to foster corporate capitalism that is accountable, ethical, and humane.
