Using Corporate Scandals to Drive Political Change with Professor Pepper Culpepper

Today, Reed Galen and Professor Pepper Culpepper discuss the themes of corporate scandals and their impact on democracy, regulation, and public opinion. They explore how scandals like Dieselgate and the Exxon scandal can catalyze political change and regulatory responses, particularly in the context of differing approaches between the US and Europe.



The discussion also delves into the implications of emerging technologies like AI and the FTX scandal, highlighting the polarized responses from different political factions. Ultimately, they discuss the need for a balanced approach to regulation that protects democracy and small businesses while addressing the challenges posed by powerful corporations.
