The book is based on the philosophy of Immanuel Kant and the European tradition, which is applied as the foundation for the analysis of the contemporary European and Anglo-American debate on business ethics in order to formulate an up-to-date theory of global business ethics. The book will compare the different schools of business ethics, corporate citizenship, and the philosophy of management and will address the modern-day issues of sustainability, business and human rights, corporate social responsibility, stakeholder management, and corporate governance, offering insights on how to deal with these international challenges of global economics, the development and protection of human rights, and the environment.
This book proposes a decision-making model for cosmopolitan business ethics as the foundation of management and leadership in dealing with the complexities of globalization. The case studies will address the efforts of businesses to work with global and cosmopolitan business ethics at the levels of maintaining corporate integrity. Both the theoretical argument and case studies presented in the book are based on exchanges with notable business ethicists, philosophers of management, business managers, and public policy-makers.
Reviews / Votes
'In an age of corporate scandals, tax evasion schemes and high-profile climate-change denial, Rendtorff reminds us that business activity is morally, politically and constitutionally justified if and only if it is socially responsible and globally conducive to the good life.' - Prof. Giorgio Baruchello, University of Akureyri'Jacob Dahl proves that "business ethics" is not a standalone discipline and those who naturally practice "cosmopolitan corporate integrity" can readily produce win-win situations for all involved. Society needs this fascinating and insightful read to become a text book in every business school and a desk book for every executive.' - Julian Clarke, European Business Ethics Network Ireland
'What I found most valuable and most interesting was [Jacob Dahl Rendtorff's] description and discussion of business ethics in Germany. This is, as he points out, a tradition unknown in the English-speaking world but it is socially valuable. All in all, this book is a substantial contribution to business ethics in English.' - Gu?mundur Hei?ar Frimannsson, Nordicum-Mediterraneum, 2019

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes).
