The Social Responsibilities of Business

Company and Community, 1900-1960

By: Morrell Heald

The concept of the social responsibility of business has roots in the Puritan doctrine of stewardship as well as the nineteenth-century gospel of wealth, but business leaders only began to consider community welfare as a whole in the context of their corporate aspirations of the latter half of the twentieth century. Originally appearing in 1970, The Social Responsibilities of Business surveys the history of corporate actions in pursuit of social responsibility, and attempts to assess likely developments. Reissued in 1988 by Transaction with a new introduction by the author and now available in paperback, the volume provides Morrel Heald the opportunity to evaluate his earlier predictions and identify prospects for further development in the area of corporate social responsibility. Some of Heald's predictions have not yet come to fruition, and he reflects upon the reasons. No effective structure yet exists to permit an open exchange of views and needs between business and representatives of its various constituencies. In addition, two of Heald's earlier suggestions have not taken root in the way he anticipated--the company foundation, and the corporate social audit-and he assesses why they have not, and what opportunities they still provide. The Social Responsibilities of Business provides essential back ground for understanding the developing social role of the corporation and for assessing its future direction.

African Masculinities

Men in Africa from the Late Nineteenth Century to the Present

By: L. Ouzgane,R. Morrell

While masculinity studies enjoys considerable growth in the West, there is very little analysis of African masculinities. This volume explores what it means for an African to be masculine and how male identity is shaped by cultural forces. The editors believe that to tackle the important questions in Africa-the many forms of violence (wars, genocides, familial violence and crime) and the AIDS pandemic-it is necessary to understand how a combination of a colonial past, patriarchal cultural structures and a variety of religious and knowledge systems creates masculine identities and sexualities. The work done in the book particularly bears in mind how vulnerability and marginalization produce complex forms of male identity. The book is interdisciplinary and is the first in-depth and comprehensive study of African men as a gendered category.

Journalist at the Brink

Louis P. Lochner in Berlin, 1922-1942

By: Morrell Heald,Louis Paul Lochner

An Outsider's Inside View of Hitler's Germany Editor Morrell Heald brings to light unpublished letters of a foreign correspondent who learned to operate under Hitler's dictatorship Mitchellville, MD (Release Date TBD) Louis P. Lochner, a Pulitzer Prize winning foreign correspondent, served in the Berlin Bureau of the Associated Press from 1924-42 and as Bureau Chief after 1928. Editor Morrell Heald shows how Lochner learned to operate under Hitler's dictatorship in Journalist at the Brink: Louis P. Lochner in Berlin, 1922-1942. This book sheds light on the social and diplomatic roles an able foreign correspondent played during the rise of Nazi Germany. It includes Lochner's on-the-ground observations of rising anti-Semitism and the German citizens' reaction to Kristallnacht. Journalist at the Brink contains selected and edited letters of Louis Lochner, a Milwaukee-born graduate of the University of Wisconsin, who headed the Berlin Bureau of the Associated Press during Hitler's rise to power and the outbreak of World War II. These previously unpublished letters provide the fullest description available of the life and work of an American foreign correspondent in the years leading up to and during World War II. Lochner's letters reveal not only the rich cultural and social life of pre-war Berlin, but also the behind-the-scenes nature of a journalist's work. Lochner never believed that most Germans had become anti-Semites, or that they were enthusiastic supporters of Hitler and the Nazis. Lochner's letters and the views they reveal can be seen as forerunners of the work of current war correspondents "embedded" with American armed forces overseas. Thought-provoking and informative, Journalist at the Brink gives an outsider's inside view of Hitler's Germany. Through Lochner's letters, readers feel the rising "tension accompanying his efforts to cover news, maintain journalistic objectivity, and preserve a semblance of calm family life." His family letters, from which this book is drawn, overflow with reports of Berlin's social and political life, recording the growing threats in one of the twentieth century's most dangerous trouble spots.
