This report examines ways in which corporations can play a more proactive role in community building. More specifically, what role can corporations assume in filling the resulting leadership gap--at the local, national, and international levels--given cross-border economic, cultural, technological, and informational transactions that have made the task of governing more difficult? How can corporations rationalize this kind of "diplomatic" role with their bottom lines? Representatives from both the business and public policy worlds who address these issues include Ryuzaburo Kaku, chairman of Canon, Inc.; Amitai Etzioni, founder of the Communitarian Network; Arthur Barron, former chairman of Time Warner International; John Charlton formerly with the Chase Manhattan Bank; Edward Legasey of SRA International; and Jeffrey Joseph of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
