This chapter displays a critical examination of proposals for managing business ethics through specific tools, techniques, practices, and processes. It explores the nature, evolution, and scope of business ethics management. The chapter also investigates why firms manage their social expectations alongside employee ethical behaviour. It then considers the role of codes of ethics in managing the ethical behaviour of employees, and the current theory and practice regarding the management of stakeholder relationships. Ultimately, the chapter analyzes the role of social accounting, auditing, and reporting tools in assessing ethical performance. It looks over the tools through which firms develop adequate environmental management systems as well as the different ways of organizing for the management of business ethics.<\/p>","DOI":"10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0006","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,17]],"date-time":"2023-10-17T11:39:33Z","timestamp":1697542773000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Managing Business Ethics Tools and Techniques of Business Ethics Management"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"Andrew","family":"Crane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Dirk","family":"Matten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Glozer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Laura J.","family":"Spence","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,31]]},"container-title":["Business Ethics"],"original-title":["Managing Business Ethics Tools and Techniques of Business Ethics Management"],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/display\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-6","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,5]],"date-time":"2024-02-05T10:54:59Z","timestamp":1707130499000},"score":20.662155,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/view\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-6"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"ISBN":["9780198810070","9780191968860"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0006","published":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]}},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,15]],"date-time":"2024-05-15T05:14:11Z","timestamp":1715750051233},"reference-count":0,"publisher":"Oxford University Press","isbn-type":[{"value":"9780198810070","type":"print"},{"value":"9780191968860","type":"electronic"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"abstract":"
This chapter presents a basic introduction to the concept of business ethics and its importance both at an academic level and in terms of practical management in different types of organizations. It starts by describing the relationship between business ethics and the law, then distinguishes between ethics, morality, and ethical theory. The chapter then introduces two of the main themes of the book: globalization and sustainability. It argues that business ethics has been recontextualized by the forces of globalization, necessitating a distinctly global view of ethical problems and practices in business. Ultimately, the chapter explains how the \u2018triple bottom line\u2019 of sustainability is a key goal for business ethics. It also elaborates on different international perspectives on business ethics, including European, Asian, and North American perspectives.<\/p>","DOI":"10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0002","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,17]],"date-time":"2023-10-17T11:42:09Z","timestamp":1697542929000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Introducing Business Ethics"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"Andrew","family":"Crane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Dirk","family":"Matten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Glozer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Laura J.","family":"Spence","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,31]]},"container-title":["Business Ethics"],"original-title":["Introducing Business Ethics"],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/display\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-2","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,5]],"date-time":"2024-02-05T10:54:58Z","timestamp":1707130498000},"score":20.478624,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/view\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-2"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"ISBN":["9780198810070","9780191968860"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0002","published":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]}},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,4]],"date-time":"2024-09-04T19:20:39Z","timestamp":1725477639272},"publisher-location":"Dordrecht","reference-count":0,"publisher":"Springer Netherlands","isbn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"9781402049835"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4020-4984-2_3","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,1,16]],"date-time":"2007-01-16T17:52:50Z","timestamp":1168969970000},"page":"51-65","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Business Ethics: Oxymoron or Good Business?"],"prefix":"10.1007","member":"297","container-title":["Issues in Business Ethics","Contemporary Reflections on Business Ethics"],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/link.springer.com\/content\/pdf\/10.1007\/978-1-4020-4984-2_3.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,29]],"date-time":"2021-04-29T04:48:47Z","timestamp":1619671727000},"score":20.373991,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/link.springer.com\/10.1007\/978-1-4020-4984-2_3"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[null]]},"ISBN":["9781402049835"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/978-1-4020-4984-2_3"},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,14]],"date-time":"2024-05-14T05:14:19Z","timestamp":1715663659570},"reference-count":0,"publisher":"Oxford University Press","isbn-type":[{"value":"9780190610272","type":"print"},{"value":"9780197601501","type":"electronic"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,29]]},"abstract":"
Business ethics are the set of moral principles that govern behavior in a specific sphere of life: the world of business. Some people think of the business environment as a cutthroat place in which people will do whatever they can get away with, including violating the law and misleading and harming others, in order to get ahead. This view, however, is misleading and inaccurate. Certainly, you can see instances of bad behavior in the business world (as in other areas of life), but most people with real experience in business will tell you that sound ethics are integral to a successful business career.<\/p>","DOI":"10.1093\/wentk\/9780190610272.003.0001","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,1]],"date-time":"2023-02-01T20:07:20Z","timestamp":1675282040000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["An Overview of Business Ethics"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"J.S.","family":"Nelson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Lynn A.","family":"Stout","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,26]]},"container-title":["Business Ethics"],"original-title":["An Overview of Business Ethics"],"language":"en","deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,1]],"date-time":"2023-02-01T20:07:20Z","timestamp":1675282040000},"score":20.372139,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/whateveryoneneedstoknow.com\/view\/10.1093\/wentk\/9780190610272.001.0001\/isbn-9780190610272-book-part-1"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,29]]},"ISBN":["9780190610272","9780197601501"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/wentk\/9780190610272.003.0001","published":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,29]]}},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,14]],"date-time":"2024-05-14T05:14:20Z","timestamp":1715663660494},"reference-count":0,"publisher":"Oxford University Press","isbn-type":[{"value":"9780190610272","type":"print"},{"value":"9780197601501","type":"electronic"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,29]]},"abstract":"

This chapter presents the classical philosophical bases for ethical arguments. We introduce the major schools of important ethical thought developed by moral philosophers, and we discuss their application in the business setting. The chapter will help the businessperson examine his or her moral compass, and to evaluate moral philosophical arguments in considering which action he or she believes is right. Questions include: What are the major schools of philosophical ethical thought? What are the strengths and limits of virtue ethics such as in Aristotle\u2019s writings? What are the strengths and limits of ethics-of-care rationales such as communitarian ethics? What are the strengths and limits of cost\u2013benefit rationales such as utilitarianism? What are the strengths and limits of rights-and-duties rationales such as Kant\u2019s categorical imperative?

This chapter looks at the ethical issues arising in the context of consumers. It analyzes the question of consumer rights, the ideal of consumer sovereignty, and the role of ethical consumption in shaping corporate responsibility. The chapter then shifts to review the impact of globalization on responsibilities towards consumers. It evaluates the arguments for more responsible marketing practices, then assesses consumer decision-making models in the context of ethical consumption. The chapter concludes by investigating the problems and solutions around moving towards more sustainable models of consumption. It elaborates the role of sustainable consumption in effecting positive social change through corporations.<\/p>","DOI":"10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0010","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,17]],"date-time":"2023-10-17T11:38:34Z","timestamp":1697542714000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Consumers and Business Ethics"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"Andrew","family":"Crane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Dirk","family":"Matten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Glozer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Laura J.","family":"Spence","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,31]]},"container-title":["Business Ethics"],"original-title":["Consumers and Business Ethics"],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/display\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-10","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,5]],"date-time":"2024-02-05T10:55:01Z","timestamp":1707130501000},"score":20.207054,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/view\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-10"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"ISBN":["9780198810070","9780191968860"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0010","published":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]}},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,15]],"date-time":"2024-05-15T05:14:17Z","timestamp":1715750057275},"reference-count":0,"publisher":"Oxford University Press","isbn-type":[{"value":"9780198810070","type":"print"},{"value":"9780191968860","type":"electronic"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"abstract":"

This chapter shows the relationships between businesses and civil society organizations (CSOs), addressing the changing patterns of relationships between these traditionally adversarial institutions. It looks at the role played by various types of CSOs as stakeholders of corporations, both directly and indirectly. The chapter also explores the ethics of pressure group tactics, business\u2013CSO collaboration, and social enterprise. The chapter then jumps to review the impacts of globalization on the nature and extent of the role played by civil society towards corporations. It further examines the different relationships between business and civil society and their impact on corporate responsibility. Ultimately, the chapter discusses the role of civil society in enhancing corporate sustainability.<\/p>","DOI":"10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0012","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,17]],"date-time":"2023-10-17T11:36:02Z","timestamp":1697542562000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Civil Society and Business Ethics"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"Andrew","family":"Crane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Dirk","family":"Matten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Glozer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Laura J.","family":"Spence","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,31]]},"container-title":["Business Ethics"],"original-title":["Civil Society and Business Ethics"],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/display\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-12","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,5]],"date-time":"2024-02-05T10:55:02Z","timestamp":1707130502000},"score":20.021288,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/view\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-12"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"ISBN":["9780198810070","9780191968860"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0012","published":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]}},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,8]],"date-time":"2024-05-08T00:54:25Z","timestamp":1715129665198},"reference-count":0,"publisher":"Oxford University Press","isbn-type":[{"value":"9780198788928","type":"print"},{"value":"9780191830952","type":"electronic"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,9]]},"abstract":"

This chapter talks about government and regulation. The government as a stakeholder, as the chapter defines it, is a very multifaceted group. The chapter unfolds the government at various levels, functions, and areas. It investigates problems such as corruption and corporate lobbying, and explores the shifting relationships between regulation, government, and business, emphasizing the increasingly important role played by corporations in the governance of the global economy. By describing the ethical issues and problems faced in business\u2013government relations, the chapter evaluates the shifts in these issues and problems in the context of globalization. Ultimately, the chapter looks at the changing role of business and CSOs in the regulatory process as well as the role of governmental regulation in achieving potentially sustainable solutions.<\/p>","DOI":"10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0013","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,17]],"date-time":"2023-10-17T11:37:44Z","timestamp":1697542664000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Government, Regulation, and Business Ethics"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"Andrew","family":"Crane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Dirk","family":"Matten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Glozer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Laura J.","family":"Spence","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,31]]},"container-title":["Business Ethics"],"original-title":["Government, Regulation, and Business Ethics"],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/display\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-13","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,5]],"date-time":"2024-02-05T10:55:03Z","timestamp":1707130503000},"score":19.951885,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.oxfordbusinesstrove.com\/view\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.001.0001\/isbn-9780198810070-book-part-13"}},"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"ISBN":["9780198810070","9780191968860"],"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/hebz\/9780198810070.003.0013","published":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]}},{"indexed":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,15]],"date-time":"2024-05-15T05:14:08Z","timestamp":1715750048171},"reference-count":0,"publisher":"Oxford University Press","isbn-type":[{"value":"9780198810070","type":"print"},{"value":"9780191968860","type":"electronic"}],"content-domain":{"domain":[],"crossmark-restriction":false},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,27]]},"abstract":"

This chapter sets out the key normative ethical theories that can be applied to business ethics problems, in terms of both traditional and contemporary theoretical approaches. It addresses Western modernist ethical theories, i.e. utilitarianism, ethics of duty, rights and justice, and social contract theory. The array of ethical theories discussed in the chapter provides a rich source of assistance in making morally informed decisions.
