Description
As ethical issues continue to rise to the top of political, social and business agendas, the competitive market-economy model comes under renewed scrutiny for its potential to violate the fundamental values and integrity required to maintain and enrich a civil society. Bringing together cutting-edge research from leading academics in the US, Europe, Australia, UK and India, this book explores the challenge business ethics poses for individuals, organizations, public administration and society at large. With potential violations which stretch from personal lapses of bribery and corruption to the more fundamental questions prompted by those who push beyond the limits of an ethically grounded competitive business system, this book provides a stimulating attempt to broaden ethical awareness and define the framework of actions within today's increasingly complex business environment. The book is aimed primarily at researchers and post-graduate students of management. Practising managers will also benefit from the multiple perspectives of ethics in theory and application. The book will provide insights for government policy-makers, regulatory bodies and general readers.
