一幅1904年的漫画,其中将一个贪得无厌、操纵市场的企业(标准石油公司)描绘成了一只无所不能的章鱼

强盗男爵(英语:Robber baron),或称为强盗贵族强盗大亨强盗资本家,原本是19世纪下半期的社会批评英语social criticism中对一些有钱有势的美国商人的蔑称。该词在1870年8月的《大西洋月刊》出现。[1]到了19世纪后期,该词常用于指那些被认为以剥削手段来积累财富的商人。[2]这些行为包括控制自然资源、游说政府高层、支付仅能糊口的的工资、兼并竞争对手以压制竞争、制造垄断以哄抬价格,以及炒高股票价格并出售给没有戒心的投资者接盘。[2]这个词结合了“强盗”(robber)和非法贵族“男爵”(baron,在共和政体中是非法的角色)二者的含义。[3]
