Non-Profit Advancement

Catalog description

This course will examine modern American enterprise from which we interpret the world around us. This course will examine modern American enterprise from two directions. First, we will see how it developed over the past century, both in response to its own internal needs and in response to the demands of those unwilling to accept completely the imperatives of American business. Second, we will study how business people themselves tried, not always successfully, to fuse strongly held religious, social, and political beliefs with the commercial values they also admired.
