Globalization has altered in significant ways the tools available
to regulate international commerce. One result is the emergence of
ethics codes, codes of responsible conduct, and best practice codes
designed to win adherence to internationally acceptable norms of
conduct on the part of corporations and other organizations
interacting in the global marketplace. This volume looks at these
developments with particular focus on five topic areas: respect for
human rights, treatment of labor, bribery and corruption,
environmental protection, and international finance and the control
of money laundering. What is significant about these developments
is the emerging emphasis on self-regulation as the primary method
for raising standards of corporate conduct. The contributors
examine the reasons for the emergence of ethical codes and the
phenomenon of self-regulation within the context of globalization
and look at the role of national governments, international
government institutions and other international organizations in
shaping and enforcing them. They also study the implications of
these developments for corporate governance and the changing roles
of national and international institutions in the regulation of
international commerce. Authoritative and engaging, Ethics Codes,
Corporations and the Challenge of Globalization will be of great
interest to scholars and practitioners in the areas of business,
economics, political science, labor, and corporate
environmentalism.
