Social Movements, Stakeholders and Non-Market Strategy

«Researchers from North America, Europe, and South America present 12 chapters on the relationship between social movement theory, stakeholder theory, and non-market strategy. They consider social movements and organizational theory, including the role of social movements in the development of the electric car industry in California, how social movement organizations impacted the medical marijuana industry, how the impact of a social movement changes over time, and social movement theory’s contribution to understanding activism around corporations and markets; social movements and stakeholders, with discussion of the conditions under which a firm's corporate social responsibility initiatives may lead to a decrease in shareholder value after a negative event, worker organizing campaigns in the US and China, the impact of stakeholder attention and pressure on service quality outcomes of water systems in the US, and the power and influence of stakeholders; and social movements and non-market strategy, including the role of activist and firm organizing in institutional change, the role of different strategies in influencing field-level change, and research on non-market strategy and social movements.»

Although these three research domains have developed via relatively distinct academic communities, they speak to a common set of phenomena at the intersection of business, markets, civil society, and the state.

This volume brings together new research that bridges the domains of stakeholder theory, non-market strategy and social movement theory. Although these three research domains have developed via relatively distinct academic communities, they speak to a common set of phenomena at the intersection of business, markets, civil society, and the state. This collection sets an agenda for a more holistic theory of business and society - a theory that takes seriously the various kinds of stakeholders that make up society and have claims over business, that incorporates the goals and objectives of businesses to survive and thrive, and that places an important role on the process of mobilization and contentious interaction between actors whose goals inherently conflict.
Using a range of quantitative and qualitative methods, contributors focus on a phenomenon at the intersection of business, civil society, and government. Examining markets shaped by heavy stakeholder involvement and contention, chapters explore topics such as markets for electric vehicles, medical marijuana, municipal drinking water, and cigarettes along with controversial business practice, including employment practices for LGBT workers and racial/ethnic minorities, and working conditions in global supply chains.
