Business schools are placing more emphasis on the role of business
in society. Top business school accreditors are shifting to
mandating that schools teach their students about the social impact
of business, including AACSB standards to require the incorporation
of business impact on society into all elements of accredited
institutions. Researchers are also increasingly focused on issues
related to sustainability, but in particular to business and peace
as a field. A strong strain of scholarship argues that ethics is
nurtured by emotions and through aesthetic quests for moral
excellence. The arts (and music as shown specifically in this book)
can be a resource to nudge positive emotions in the direction
toward ethical behavior and, logically, then toward peace. Business
provides a model for positive interactions that not only foster
long-term successful business but also incrementally influences
society. This book provides an opportunity for integration and
recognition of how music (and other art forms) can further
encourage business toward the direction of peace while business
provides a platform for the dissemination and modeling of the
positive capabilities of music toward the aims of peace in the
world today. The primary market for this book is the academic
audience. Unlike many other academic books, however, the
interdisciplinary nature of the book allows for multiple academic
audiences. Thus, this book reaches into schools of music, business,
political science, film studies, sports and society studies, the
humanities, ethics and, of course, peace studies.
