Business-Government Relations and Interdependence: A Managerial and Analytic Perspective

Although much has been written on the various aspects of the business-government relationship, this new research-based study is among the first to explore the dynamics of this interaction fully and to provide the comprehensive analysis needed to bring many diverse elements into perspective. An in-depth study of the problems confronting business and government in their efforts to work together, it examines private and public sector managerial views and attempts to integrate them in the context of "real world" experience. The sources of problems and specific alternative courses are identified using a data-based analytical approach that focuses on substantive issues.
