LONDONO-CORREA, Diana  and  GARZON, César. Corporate Political Activity: Balance and topics of research in Latin American contexts. Cuad. Adm. [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.52, pp.229-260. ISSN 0120-3592.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.cao29-52.apcb.

This paper reviews corporate political activity (CPA) research articles published between 2004 and 2015 in different journals. A surprising finding is that a low number of articles have dealt with CPA in Latin American cases. To promote research on CPA in these contexts, a research program is presented with the following three-phase structure: basic questions, combination of topics and other subjects of interest. This agenda can outline a path for CPA research that not only supports practices with a contextualized administrative knowledge but also evidences the political actions of enterprises that can promote the control of wrongful corporate behaviors.

Keywords : Latin America; non-market strategy; relationships between enterprises and governments.
