Just Business Practices in a Diverse and Developing World - Essays on International Business and Global Responsibilities (Hardcover, 2006 ed.)

In a world unbalanced by extensive poverty, divided by conflicting interests and contrasting moral traditions, and vulnerable to environmental degradation, what difference can international businesses make? This book of essays addresses this urgent concern from a number of angles.Three initial essays consider ways of arriving at common ethical positions while still respecting diverse local cultural traditions. The next set of essays examines the emergence of morally responsible business practices in globally diverse contexts, particularly in developing areas. While considering the inherent tensions between moral ideals and contingent realities, the last set of essays discuss topics such as the transfer of technologies and the reduction of poverty where responsible practices are still being debated.
