The Business and Society (BAS) 360 book series is an annual publication targeting cutting-edge developments in the broad business and society field, such as stakeholder management, corporate social responsibility and citizenship, business ethics, sustainability, corporate governance and others. Each volume will feature a comprehensive discussion and review of the current ‘state’ of the research and theoretical developments in a specific business and society area. As business and society is an inherently multi-disciplinary scholarly area, the book series will draw from work in areas outside of business and management, such as psychology, sociology, philosophy, religious studies, economics and other related fields, as well as the natural sciences, education and other professional areas of study.
This volume focuses on research drawn from work grounded in ‘Business Ethics.’ Scholars known in this discipline contribute to a 360-degree evaluation of the theory, including cross-discipline research, empirical explorations, cross-cultural studies, literature critiques and meta-analysis projects.
The book should appeal to a wide range of readers; from emerging and senior business school educators researching and teaching in the business and society field, to doctoral and masters level students across the business, social sciences and natural sciences seeking to learn about this multi-discipline and sustained field of management study. Business executives and managers could benefit from reading how the business and society field began, the path it has taken and the new, emerging directions that scholars envision for the field.
"This volume of Business and Society 360 gives a full-spectrum, fresh look at business ethics research. Leading scholars present new insights about behavioral ethics, organizational ethics, and neuro-ethics that can catalyze further innovative research and thinking in the profession." -- Laszlo Zsolnai * European SPES Institute, Leuven *
"This volume promises to be a valuable reference for understanding current and emerging perspectives in business ethics research and theory, covering social scientific and normative/philosophical approaches, individual and organizational levels of analysis, and important new topics and methods in the field." -- Gary R. Weaver * University of Delaware *
"What a terrific collection of scholars and scholarship! The author list reads like a who's who of business ethics and the range of topics and approaches is both broad and adventurous. Presented are current theoretical and practical challenges and oriented towards providing a pathway for the future." -- Andrew Crane * Director, Centre for Business, Organisations and Society (CBOS), School of Management, University of Bath, UK *
"It is a privilege to see the maturing of the business ethics field into edited volumes like this. This 360 degree analysis brings together an exciting array of perspectives. It will be a terrific addition to our canon." -- Laura J. Spence * University of London *
"Business and Society 360 is aspiring and valuable. Undertaking the "Business Ethics" theme for the third volume is very timely as corporate leaders and their stakeholders find numerous ethical challenges in the workplace with significant consequences to all affected. Many emerging issues are featured, providing food for thought for business managers and employees alike." -- Harry Witt
Contributed by business and management scholars from the US, Europe, and Chile, the 12 chapters in this volume explore aspects of business ethics, progress in business ethics areas, and research across various levels of analysis. They discuss the foundations of the business ethics field and the future of behavioral ethics research, as well as the ethical implications of the current technological revolution; influences on business ethics at the individual level of analysis, including virtue ethics, the effects of unethical leadership in organizations, expressive business ethics, and cognitive moral development and ethical decision making; organizational-level ethics, including the importance of morality in group settings, unethical behavior, and research on the dark side of behavioral ethics; and new areas of research in the business ethics field, including neuroscience research in the context of ethical leadership, a humanistic ontology for responsible management, and the use of precision tools in ethics research. -- Annotation ©2019 * (protoview.com) *
