Corruption, child labor, or accounting manipulations - reports of morally reprehensible practices in and by companies are now making headlines almost daily. As a result, a lively academic discussion has developed in this country regarding how such phenomena can best be theoretically explained, assessed, and ultimately influenced. This volume brings together the key authors on this topic, who present their respective approaches concisely and clearly. A brief historical context and additional literature references from the editors complete this comprehensive overview of German-language theories of business and corporate ethics.
