Business Ethics: New Challenges in a Globalized World provides a comprehensive account of the challenges facing businesses as they pursue global business activities. The importance of business ethics as an academic subject and business priority has increased significantly, as companies have increasingly been placed in the moral spotlight by shareholders, consumers, employees and governments. The growing complexities of the global economy demand a broader and a deeper view of business ethics than that offered by current management approaches that focus on reforming corporate behaviour. This book places business ethics in a richer contextual setting, focusing on the challenges that business must now confront, such as inequality, financial risk, migrant labour, climate change and human rights, and exploring how these challenges can be met by a rethinking of business models, goals and strategies. Designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students, Business Ethics provides a comprehensive account of both the challenges and business responses to ethical issues facing businesses as they pursue global business activities.
