In a popular case study of the company, Robert Bruner, dean of the Darden Graduate School of Business Administration at the University of Virginia, and his coauthor, Samuel Bodily, a professor of business administration, have tried to provide a few answers– arguing, surprisingly, for a longer view of Enron's rise and fall. Bruner spoke with Senior Editor Justin Ewers:
