Content:
A series of high-profile events in recent years have highlighted the growing need to cover ethical issues in international business and raise awareness of the responsibilities that need to be integrated into all levels and all subjects. Utilising the knowledge from a wide selection of expert contributors and illuminated by a case study for each chapter, this comprehensive volume makes a compelling case for business ethics to become an integrated consideration across the business disciplines, rather than an afterthought in the curriculum
