Poletown Dilemma
內容大綱
Senior management of General Motors must select a site for a new assembly plant to replace two plants located in Detroit. The economics strongly favor a site in an adjacent state. However, a relocation would have substantial, negative impact on the existing work force, the City of Detroit, and suppliers in the Detroit area. Selection of a Detroit site would result in higher costs and would require the taking by eminent domain of 1,200 homes in the community of Poletown. The case raises issues of corporate responsibility, business-government relations, and stakeholder analysis.
