En savoir plus
This business ethics collection is composed of a variety of original and unique journal articles published by the very first chair of business ethics in Canada, Dr. Arthur Wesley Cragg. As a moral philosopher, Dr. Cragg delves into a range of business ethics topics, including: stakeholder theory; business ethics in North America; human rights; corruption; bribery; as well as the future of business ethics. The book addresses such questions as: What are the current trends in business ethics research, teaching, and training in North America? In an industry like mining, who counts as a stakeholder and how do managers talk about corporate responsibilities?; To what extent do both the business and ethics case arguments supporting stakeholder theory hold up to scrutiny? Why should corporations obey the law? Business ethics has certainly matured as a distinct academic field, however, critical analysis of the very topics falling within the field has rarely taken place. This book addresses that gap and would be of great interest to business ethics academics, business ethics researchers and practitioners, and graduate-level students interested in the field of business ethics.
