MGT-5870: Policy, Law, and the Ethics of Sustainability

Law and public policy shape the relationships between business firms and the environment, including the climate. The primary goal of this course is to learn to think critically about: (1) the relationship between business and the natural environment including the climate; (2) the existing legal and policy framework of environmental and climate protection, particularly in the US and its effects on what business managers are charged to do; and (3) the potential of business professionals to affect change in that legal and policy environment. The course will provide a grounding in the foundational concepts of sustainability and how those concepts have, and have not been incorporated into business strategy, environmental law, and business policy. As we address different topics in environmental law and sustainability policy, we will examine a series of case studies in which law, policy, and business intersect.
