The unprecedented growth and demand for Applied Ethics (Business Ethics, Medical Ethics, Information Ethics, Engineering Ethics, etc.) since the last quarter of the previous century, has opened up a range of new opportunities for the discipline of Philosophy. While these new opportunities have been enthusiastically seized upon by some philosophers, others have frowned upon them or rejected them outright. In order to make sense of this demand for Applied Ethics training, I will first explore in general why this demand for Applied Ethics developed. I will then use the example of Business Ethics to demonstrate and discuss some of the suspicions contemplated by philosophers who regard Applied Ethics as a dangerous and deceitful temptation that potentially can corrupt Philosophy, and that philosophers should at best avoid or at least be very careful of. I will assess the legitimacy and seriousness of these concerns and objections with regard to Business Ethics and then outline an Aristotelian approach to Business Ethics that I believe can be practised with philosophical integrity. 相似文献

In this paper an assessment will be made of the state of Business Ethics as an academic discipline as well as on the extent to which theory on Business Ethics has been translated into practice within the South African society. First the way in which Business Ethics is defined will be examined. Then the issues within the field of Business Ethics that is considered to be most important will be addressed, as well as the reasons why it is believed to be important to address them. From there the attention will be shifted to the way in which Business Ethics has been institutionalised at tertiary education level. An overview of important initiatives taken by the business sector themselves will also be reviewed. Then co-operation between business and academia on Business Ethics will be discussed. Finally an assessment will be made of what can be learned from Business Ethics elsewhere in the world and what can be offered in this regard. Also some future prospects of Business Ethics in South Africa will be explored. 相似文献

This article examines the relevance and value of Confucian Ethics to contemporary Business Ethics by comparing their respective
perspectives and approaches towards business activities within the modern capitalist framework, the principle of reciprocity
and the concept of human virtues. Confucian Ethics provides interesting parallels with contemporary Western-oriented Business
Ethics. At the same, it diverges from contemporary Business Ethics in some significant ways. Upon an examination of philosophical
texts as well as empirical studies, it is argued that Confucian Ethics is able to provide some unique philosophical and intellectual
perspectives in order to forge a richer understanding and analysis of the field of contemporary Business Ethics.

The Effectiveness of Business Codes: A Critical
Examination of Existing Studies and the Development of an Integrated Research Model 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Business codes are a widely used management instrument. Research into the effectiveness of business codes has, however, produced
conflicting results. The main reasons for the divergent findings are: varying definitions of key terms; deficiencies in the
empirical data and methodologies used; and a lack of theory. In this paper, we propose an integrated research model and suggest
directions for future research.

This study was designed to survey the extent to which private companies in Sweden take structural measures within the field of business ethics: Codes of Ethics; Ethics Committees; Ethics Officers and Ethics Training. This was done in two steps. Through a nation-wide telephone survey, a population of "active" companies were identified. These companies received a questionnaire with detailed questions regarding the design, usage and effects of these measures. The percentage of active companies were found to be a high 46%. National and industry characteristics are proposed as explanatory factors. 相似文献

This article will defend a very simple thesis. In a diverse globalized “flat” world with expanding economic opportunities
and risks, we will need to revisit and revise our mindsets about free enterprise, corporate governance, and leadership. That
we can change our mindsets and world view is illustrated by studies of primate behavior, and the kind of leadership necessary
in a global economy is, interestingly, exemplified by women.
This paper has benefited greatly from the earlier work of Nancy Adler at McGill University and from my colleagues, Lisa Gundry,
Margaret Posig, Lili Powell, Laurel Ofstein and Jane Carlson.

This paper looks at some of the promise for service learning in the undergraduate Business Ethics course and describes one experience with this project. Quotations from student journals and reflective papers are utilized to present the student's perspective on the project. Some suggestions are offered for insuring effective service learning in courses like Business Ethics.John Kohls is an Associate Professor of Management at Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington.

Currently, entrepreneurs and corporations overwhelmingly do not view the alleviation of global poverty as a strategic priority.
Yet business activity can have a negative as well as a positive effect on each distinctive form of poverty. In order to reduce
poverty, entrepreneurs have to find ways of limiting the negative aspects. This might be achieved by deliberately augmenting
strategies so that they can achieve a synthesis, in partnership with governments and NGO’s.

In Barnett and Block (J Bus Ethics 88(4):711–716, 2009a), the present authors claim that borrowing short and lending long is fraudulent, and thus ought to be prohibited on legal
grounds. Bagus and Howden (J Bus Ethics 90(3):399, 2009) take issue with our ethical analysis. The present paper is our response to these authors; it is an attempt to defend Barnett
and Block (J Bus Ethics 88(4):711–716, 2009a) against the very interesting and important, although we believe, erroneous, criticisms of Bagus and Howden (J Bus Ethics
90(3):399, 2009). 相似文献

The field of Business Ethics is still underdeveloped and negative stereotypes about the level of business ethics practice are prevalent. The field of Business Ethics is not yet institutionalized in the Academia of most ideastern countries. Most governments in the region have agencies to combat corruption. One of the interesting developments is the Eco-Peace organization for cross national cooperation in the field of ecology. The report concludes with some of the trends expected to impact economic developments and Business Ethics in the Middle East. 相似文献

Business Ethics is a topical issue. The relationship between Business Ethics and Corporate Strategy, however, has been less widely discussed. This article argues that recent developments in society, including a greater awareness of environmental issues, encourage a different way of exploring this relationship. 相似文献

This study conducted an empirical survey of 126 Business Ethics students in business and management departments within two universities across the Taiwan Strait to evaluate the impact on these managers-to-be of receiving an education in Business Ethics. The results show that, after receiving that Business Ethics education, students in both universities demonstrated significant improvements in the ethical weighting of their individual values, their recognition of ethical issues and their performance as ethical decision-makers. However, in respect of ethical decision-making, the behavior of these students is still sub-optimal, indicating a need for further improvements in the ethical education of managers-to-be across the Taiwan Strait. 相似文献

ways.

Abstact In a recent paper in Business Ethics Quarterly Professor Jeffrey Moriarty (2005) asserted the relevance of political philosophy to business ethics. Moriarty asked whether
“businesses ought to be run (more) like states” and argued why that might be beneficial. This paper on the contrary asserts
that there are distinct disadvantages to businesses attempting to be run more like states. Specifically, it asserts that any
such an attempt increases the likelihood of the re-emergence of a totalitarian society as businesses currently often act as
an intermediary between the individual and the state. The paper contemplates Moeller’s ambitions in the Weimar period for
the business to be run like a state and the historical outcome of those ambitions. The paper also distinguishes between two
different kinds of rights and argues that different kinds of rights pertain to different sectors which preclude business being
run like a state.
