Description
Section information text: This is business ethics for all of us who deal with businesses as well as those in the business sector. We consider business in relation to social justice, labor issues, problems of discrimination in the workplace, tax policy, affirmative action, the moral limits of deception and manipulation in marketing, ethical consumerism, and the environment. Using readings from ethicians, business leaders, economists, and activists, we shall talk about conducting business ethically and engaging with business ethically. Useful to current and future entrepreneurs, managers, marketers, accountants, and bankers, this course focuses issues of importance to consumers and workers and ordinary citizens.
