The enterprising stakeholder

Article Abstract:

The Labour party has come under attack for focusing on the concept of the stakeholder economy, with critics claiming that this approach would boost the power of trade unions. Indeed, the stakeholder approach has not been successful in the UK in the past, mainly because the various groups of stakeholders, including shareholders, employers and the government, have failed to work together effectively. The stakeholder economy has the potential to form the basis for a new enterprise culture in the UK, but is unlikely to do so while it attracts such mixed feelings.
