Rejoinder

Stephen R. Barley

Stanford University

The articles assembled for the special section on corporations, democracy, and the public good provide a useful starting point for outlining a possible trajectory for future research. Institutional theory can be a solid theoretical foundation, especially when researchers emphasize the role of ideologies and language as well as power and agency. The inner workings of the legal system, and specifically the formation and adjudication of the law, may be a promising arena for empirical work. Finally, meaningful research can be promoted by resisting the temptation to base scholarly work on overly simplistic, uni-dimensional, and naïve conceptualizations of "democracy" and the "public good."

Key Words: corporate power • democracy • public good
