Zusammenfassung

Begriff und Ansatz des Stakeholders sind über die letzten drei Dekaden hinweg zu einem festen Bestandteil von Managementforschung und -praxis geworden. Obwohl die wegweisenden Arbeiten von R. Edward Freeman längst den Status von Klassikern innehaben, wäre die Rede von einem einheitlichen Stakeholder-Ansatz verfehlt. Der Beitrag nähert sich diesem Ansatz aus der Perspektive seiner maßgeblichen Vertreter, unterstreicht jedoch die höchst unterschiedlichen Lesarten, die das Konzept bis heute auszeichnet.
