Business Ethics in Asia
The theory and practice of business ethics require a certain ripeness of insight to successfully navigate the complexity of business decisions and how such decisions affect the welfare of human beings. In the proverbial increasingly globalizing world, there is greater awareness that hardly any decision in the different functional areas of a corporation is ethically neutral, insofar as corporate decisions have decisive effects on the health, wealth, and development of human beings…
This book is therefore a contribution to the development of the theory and practice of business ethics that is culture-sensitive. For the essays and cases on business ethics collected here offer insights and tools for corporate decision-making from an Asian perspective.

in the modern globalized world, and the special contribution that the Ignatian tradition can bring
to these challenges. The first day of the conference is devoted to academic exchange among
specialists in business ethics. The second day is a business conference, in which both academics
and practitioners will interact in sessions that are relevant for the implementation of business
ethics. Then the third day is for selected company visits, to allow all the participants to witness
first-hand how those companies have designed programs and policies that respond to the ethical
challenges of their industries.
