The emergence of
modern organizations and the transitions between the roles of private and
public actors created a complex panorama. Public and private interests are
interdependent. While modern governments implement various types of
interventions over the business, firms attempt to influence the institutional
environment with the market and non-market activities. In line with the
traditional approach of strategic management, corporate political behavior
literature defines the business as a political actor, and display efforts to
understand the processes in the policy environment resulting in performance. By
reviewing the concept of corporate political behavior, this study aims to
assess the contemporary construct and traditional strategy formulations of the
corporate political behavior. Thus, this paper evaluates the
government-business relation in light of controversial results of classical
assumptions of strategic management through narrowing down the recent research
literature within the context of policy and strategy. This paper further aims
to provide future work recommendations.

Modern örgütlerin
ortaya çıkışı ile özel ve kamusal aktörlerin rolleri arasında geçişlerin
oluşması, bu aktörlerin yapı ve işlevlerinin incelenmesi konusunda karmaşık bir
tablo yaratmaktadır. Kurumsal politik davranış, kamusal ve özel çıkarların
karşılıklı bağımlılığı içinde, işletmenin kamu politikası süreçlerini kendi
lehine etkilemesi olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Stratejik yönetim düşüncesinin
geleneksel olarak etkinliği odağa alan yaklaşımıyla uyumlu olarak kurumsal
politik davranış yazını da devlet etkinliğinin işletme üzerindeki etkilerine
odaklanarak işletmeyi politik bir aktör olarak tanımlamış, politika
çevresindeki süreç ve aktörleri de politik piyasa tasarımı çerçevesinde
anlamaya çalışmıştır. Bnunla birlikte, kamu kesimi ile özel kesim arasındaki
sınırın yapay olduğu; bu yapay sınırın politik kararlar söz konusu olduğunda
bireyler ve kurumlar tarafından aşıldığı ögz önüne alındığında, bu kurgunun
gözden geçirilmesi gerektiği ortaya çıkmaktadır Bu çalışmada, klasik kurumsal
politik davanış varsayımlarının tartışmalı sonuçları ışığında devlet-işletme
ilişkisi incelenmekte, bu alanda ortaya konan araştırma birikimi
politika-strateji bağlamı içinde daraltılarak geleneksel strateji yaklaşımı
değerlendirilmektedir. Yine, iktisadi etkinlik odağının sorun alanları ve bu
alanların sorgulanmasına yönelik kuramsal katkılar da eleştirel bir perspektifle
değerlendirilmekte, ileride yapılacak çalışmalar için öneriler
geliştirilmektedir.
