After experiments with various economic systems, we appear to have conceded, to misquote Winston Churchill that “free enterprise
is the worst economic system, except all the others that have been tried.” Affirming that conclusion, I shall argue that in
today’s expanding global economy, we need to revisit our mind-sets about corporate governance and leadership to fit what will
be new kinds of free enterprise. The aim is to develop a values-based model for corporate governance in this age of globalization
that will be appropriate in a variety of challenging cultural and economic settings. I shall present an analysis of mental
models from a social constructivist perspective. I shall then develop the notion of moral imagination as one way to revisit
traditional mind-sets about values-based corporate governance and outline what I mean by systems thinking. I shall conclude
with examples for modeling corporate governance in multi-cultural settings and draw tentative conclusions about globalization.

The Challenger incident was a result of at least four kinds of difficulties: differing perceptions and priorities of the engineers and management at Thiokol and at NASA, a preoccupation with roles and role responsibilities on the part of engineers and managers, contrasting corporate cultures at Thiokol and its parent, Morton, and a failure both by engineers and by managers to exercise individual moral responsibility. I shall argue that in the Challenger case organizational structure, corporate culture, engineering and managerial habits, and role responsibilites precipitated events contributing to the Challenger disaster. At the same time, a number of individuals at Morton Thiokol and NASA were responsible for the launch failure. Differing world views, conflicting priorities of the engineers and managers on this project, and the failure of either engineers or management to take personal moral responsibility for decision-making contributed significantly to the event.

Neoliberal globalization has not yielded the results it promised; global inequality has risen, poverty and hunger are still
prevailing in large parts of this world. If this devastating situation shall be improved, economists must talk less about
economic growth and more about people’s rights. The use of the language of rights will be key for making the economy work
more in favor of the least advantaged in this world. Not only will it provide us with the vocabulary necessary to reframe
such pressing global problems and to find adequate economic solutions; it will also deliver the basis for deriving according
duties and duty-bearers – the language of rights is congruent with the language of justice and as such it is inevitably and
at the same time the language of obligations. The language of obligations exposes the multinational corporation as one of
the main agents of justice in the global economy. Taking distributive justice as a starting point for reflection, a consistent
derivation of the multinational’s moral obligations must focus on capabilities rather than on causality. This will lead to
a shift from merely passive to active duties and accordingly to a stronger emphasis on the corporation’s contribution to the
realization of positive rights.

Today’s sweatshops violate our notions of justice, yet they continue to flourish. This is so because we have not settled on
criteria that would allow us to condemn and do away with them and because the poor working conditions in certain places are
preferable to the alternative of no job at all. In this paper, we examine these phenomena. We consider the definitional dilemmas
posed by sweatshops by routing a standard definition of sweatshops through the precepts put forward in the literature on justice
and virtue ethics. We conclude that fixing on definitions is pointless and misleading and that we are better off looking at
whether or not a workplace violates the basic human rights of workers and whether or not the working conditions there cohere
with situations on which we have already rendered judgments. In the end, we suggest guidelines for businesses that operate
in the global workplace to help them avoid charges of running sweatshops. These recommendations account for the harsh living
conditions in certain developing and emerging countries as well as the norms of societies in developed countries.

The normative foundations of the investor centered model of corporate governance, represented in mainstream economics by the
nexus-of-contracts view of the firm, have come under attack, mainly by proponents of normative stakeholder theory. We argue
that the nexusof-
contracts view is static and limited due to its assumption of price-output certainty. We attempt a synthesis of the nexus-of-contracts
and the Knightian views, which provides novel insights into the normative adequacy of the investor-centered firm. Implications
for scholarship and
management practice follow from our discussion.

The Communication of Corporate Social Responsibility: United States and European Union Multinational Corporations 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study explores corporate social responsibility (CSR) by conducting a cross-cultural analysis of communication of CSR
activities in a total of 16 U.S. and European corporations. Drawing on previous research contrasting two major approaches
to CSR initiatives, it was proposed that U.S. companies would tend to communicate about and justify CSR using economic or
bottom-line terms and arguments whereas European companies would rely more heavily on language or theories of citizenship,
corporate accountability, or moral commitment. Results supported this expectation of difference, with some modification. Specifically,
results indicated that EU companies do not value sustainability to the exclusion of financial elements, but instead project
sustainability commitments in addition to financial commitments. Further, U.S.-based companies focused more heavily on financial
justifications whereas EU-based companies incorporated both financial and sustainability elements in justifying their CSR activities. In addition, wide variance was found in both the
prevalence and use of specific CSR-related terminology. Cross-cultural distinctions in this use create implications with regard
to measurability and evidence of both strategic and bottom-line impact. Directions for further research are discussed.

With the recent rash of mergers and friendly and unfriendly takeovers, two important issues have not received sufficient attention as questionable ethical practices. One has to do with the rights of employees affected in mergers and acquisitions and the second concerns the responsibilities of shareholders during these activities. Although employees are drastically affected by a merger or an acquisition because in almost every case a number of jobs are shifted or even eliminated, employees at all levels are usually the last to find out about a merger transaction and have no part in the takeover decision. Second, if shareholders are the fiduciary beneficiaries of mergers and acquisitions, then it would appear that they have some responsibilities or obligations attached to these benefits, but little is said about such responsibilities. In this essay I shall analyze these two ethical issues, and at the end of the paper I shall suggest how they are related.

This paper examines the professions as examples of “moral community” and explores how professional leaders possessed of moral
intelligence can make a contribution to enhance the ethical fabric of their communities. The paper offers a model of ethical
leadership in the professional business sector that will improve our understanding of how ethical behavior in the professions
confers legitimacy and sustainability necessary to achieving the professions’ goals, and how a leadership approach to ethics
can serve as an effective tool for the dissemination of moral values in the organization.

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.

Despite the fact that a number of economists and philosophers of late defend insider trading both as a viable and useful practice in a free market and as not immoral, I shall question the value of insider trading both from a moral and an economic point of view. I shall argue that insider trading both in its present illegal form and as a legalized market mechanism undermines the efficient and proper functioning of a free market, thereby bringing into question its own raison d'etre. It does so and is economically inefficient for the very reason that it is immoral. Thus this practice cannot be justified either from an economic or a moral point of view.

Urban communities in 21st century America are facing severe economic challenges, ones that suggest a mandate to contemplate
serious changes in the way America does business. The middle class is diminishing in many parts of the country, with consequences
for the economy as a whole. When faced with the loss of its economic base, any business community must make some difficult
decisions about its proper role and responsibilities. Decisions to support the community must be balanced alongside and against
responsibilities to owners, shareholders and relevant “stakeholders” in a relatively new context. Corporations in urban communities
“hollowed out” by white flight or urban sprawl must decide what level of support they can and should provide. This paper examines
corporate decisions within the emerging urban prosperity initiatives, using the framework of integrative social contract theory
proposed by Donaldson and Dunfee. We suggest that urban prosperity initiatives present a mandate on corporations sufficiently
strong as to qualify as an authentic norm. Further, we argue that strict adherence to a corporate bottom line approach or “corporate isolationism” is not congruent
with contemporary community standards.

As multinational firms explore new and promising national markets two of the most crucial elements in the strategic decision
regarding market-entry are the level of corruption and existing trade barriers. One form of corruption that is crucially important
to firms is the theft of intellectual property. In particular, software piracy has become a hotly debated topic due to the
deep costs and vast levels of piracy around the world. The purpose of this paper is to assess how laissez-faire trade policies
and corruption affect national software piracy rates. Using invisible hand theory, as well as literature from the fields of
international strategy and ethics, formal research hypotheses are posited and tested. Results suggest that corruption mediates
the relationship between economic freedom and software piracy. Implications for multinational managers and researchers are
also addressed.

This essay was written for the 1984 General Motors Intercollegiate Business Understanding Program. It consists of three sections, each responding to a separate issue posed by General Motors. The opinions expressed are not those of the General Motors management.The first section attempts to document, through the use of Harvard Business Review articles, a shift in the notion of managerial responsibility from a narrowly focused role responsibility to a more widely focused moral responsibility.The second section explicates the different conceptions of Justice behind the United States and West German economic systems. It gives examples of the consequences of the different conceptions both in methods of policy formation and results.The third section deals with business ethics in international contexts. It argues that law is by itself inadequate in the regulation of business activity and must be supplemented by public discussion, which employs the traditional methods of moral reasoning.John Davis Feldmann, John Kelsay, and Hugh E. Brown III are or have been graduate students in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Virginia. Their essay, written under the direction of James F. Childress, Edwin B.

The study examines the beliefs of students from selected colleges in an eastern university. The results indicate that beliefs which students perceive are required to succeed in the university differ among colleges. Business and economics students consistently perceive a greater need for unethical beliefs than students from other colleges.

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.
