Summary Annotation 'The Blame Business' takes us on a fascinating journey through the landscape of blame, focusing on its roots and enduring manifestations, from ancient witch-hunts to today's scapegoating and stigmatization; from righteous anger to blame cultures. In an era of increasing unease about governance in public and private enterprises Steve Fineman delves behind the scenes of organizations infected with blame and profiles the people who try to hold them to account. With a critical eye he examines the vexed issue of public accountability as politicians and corporate leaders play their 'blame games.'
