Economics makes the incommensurable commensurable by money prices.
On the other hand, there are varieties of goodness like the ethical
that seem not to fit into the scale of prices of economics, but
cannot be neglected in economizing. Ways of integrating ethics into
economics must therefore be found. The aim of this book is the
integration of the ethical discourse into the economic discourse
about the economical and efficient. It investi gates into the
structure of goodness. The contribution of this volume to the
current debate in economic ethics and business ethics lies in its
analysis of the different meanings of the good and in its
reflection on the possibilities of implementing ethical goods into
the practice of the economist and the manager of the firm. Its
essays investigate the role of ethics in social and individual
choice. They examine and compare the cultural determinants of the
Western and the Japanese economies, their ethical and cultural
foundations. They look into the principles of good management. How
can the management incorporate human goods and consider the virtues
of impartiality and of due consideration to the particular in its
business practice? The book develops the idea of an ethical
economizing in economics and of an ethical managing in business
administration. The business of business is ethical business."
