Paul M. Minus Overview The papers gathered in this volume were
first presented for reflection and discussion at a landmark event
in March 1992. The International Conference on the Ethics of
Business in a Global Economy, held in Columbus, Ohio, brought
together over 300 participants from twenty-two nations in six
continents. This was the most geographically diverse body of
leaders ever assembled to consider issues of ethics in business.
Approximately two-thirds of them were business executives; the
others came mainly from the fields of education and religion.
Knowing the context from which this book emerged will help readers
understand its composition and content. As can be quickly seen, the
fourteen authors who have contributed to it come from different
areas of the world and from different fields of endeavor. One
finds, first, essays on the book's central theme by business
leaders from four nations. Next there are analyses of three key
topics by scholars active in the fields of economics and ethics.
Then come statements by practitioners of four major world religions
on the relevance of their respective traditions to the ethics of
business. Finally there are six brief case studies prepared by two
business ethicists about specific ethical issues arising in
international business. The authors address different facets of one
of the most dramatic new facts of our time: the globalization of
business. With many corporations now operating around the world and
others planning a significant expansion of markets, this
development is destined to accelerate in coming decades.
