["Sabri Oncu" <soncu@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Walter,

These should help:

Although the concept seems to have appeared after the 1929 US Stock Market
Crash, it seems that the term "stakeholder" came to being in a 1963 Stanford
Research Institute (SRI) internal memorandum. The third link above says
this:

"Tracing the term "stakeholder" to a 1963 Stanford Research Institute (SRI)
internal memorandum, Freeman (1984) crystallized the stakeholder perspective
(cf. Barnard, 1938)."

If you look at this book by Freeman, you may learn more I believe.

In these days the stakeholder concept is on the rise again, thanks to the
market crashes of 2000 and 2001.
