It was reprinted by Resources for the Future as a basic introduction to the rapidly evolving and increasingly important field of toxic substances control. The regulatory problem addressed by the author is literally awesome. There are roughly 65,000 chemicals in commerce; over four million are known. "The vast number of chemicals to be tested, evaluated, and regulated makes toxic substances control in many respects the major challenge of the health and environmental movement." A case study of vinyl chloride is used as a basis for examining the law and policy of toxic substances control. Doniger is an attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council; he was previously with the Environmental Law Institute (both in Washington, D.C.). He was special issue editor of the Ecology Law Quarterly for the topic "Hazardous Substances in the Environment: Law and Policy," which was funded by Resources for the Future.

Whole segments of British industry are now operating under the supervision of regulatory bodies not dissimilar to the government departments they were designed to replace. Regulation has been an inevitable part of the structural changes in the 1980s, notably the privatization programme and changes in the financial services industries. This book assesses these developments across a number of sectors (utilities, telecommunications, financial services, health, and higher education) and offers a range of perspectives for understanding the various objectives, mechanisms, and institutions involved. The book offers important insights into the way in which the structure of privatized insutries interact with the form of regulation. It has significant implications for countries that are embarking on the process of privatization, regulation, and deregulation of their industries.

This article examines the future of corporate social responsibility. Bowen's (1953) key question concerned whether the interests of business and society merge in the long ran. That question is assessed in the present and future contexts. There seem to be distinctly anti‐responsibility trends in recent academic literature and managerial views concerning best practices. These trends raise significant doubts about the future status of corporate social responsibility theory and practice. The vital change is that a leitmotif of wealth creation progressively dominates the managerial conception of responsibility. The article provides a developmental history of the corporate social responsibility notion from the Progressive Era forward to the corporate social performance framework and Carroll's pyramid of corporate social responsibilities. There are three emerging alternatives or competitors to responsibility: (1) an economic conception of responsibility; (2) global corporate citizenship; and (3) stakeholder management practices. The article examines and assesses each alternative. The article then assesses the prospects for business responsibility in a global context. Two fundamentals of social responsibility remain: (1) the prevailing psychology of the manager; and (2) the normative framework for addressing how that psychology should be shaped. Implications for practice and scholarship are considered.
