The emerging censorship of political payments by U.S. business corporations is a potentially important, but little noted, aspect of the recent controversies about these payments. The operating behavior of American business overseas is becoming a new dimension of the public regulations of business.

The disclosure of political payment abroad has led federal agencies to increase still further their role as arbiters of business behavior. (en) |
