Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethics Through Corporate Strategy is a daring challenge to anyone who uses the customary language of business in America. It is daring because Daniel Gilbert argues that we should discard two popular ways of linking business and ethics. It is challenging, because Gilbert proceeds from the premise that everyone who uses a language of business is responsible for the ethical implications of that way of talking. This work is one demonstration of how we can relocate conversations about business in the larger conversation that we know as liberal education.

Download or read book The Twilight of Corporate Strategy written by Daniel R. Gilbert and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1992 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been many books written about how to apply the concept of corporate strategy, yet few discuss the meaningfulness of the applications involved. Until now, not a single book has been written about the reasons people give to justify their study and advocacy of corporate strategy as a method of talking about the modern corporation. Taking a cue from the nineteenth-century philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Gilbert argues in The Twilight of Corporate Strategy that those who study corporate strategy can begin to justify their efforts once they take the very meaning of corporate strategy to be an open, ethical question. Gilbert creates a Nietzschean analysis in which he places the idea of corporate strategy in the "twilight" between the "daylight" of continued usage and the "darkness" of irrelevance for humans. This unique analysis is based on an exploration of the corporate strategy concept in an ethical twilight. Gilbert reinterprets the dominant contemporary approach, which he calls "strategy through process", as an ethical commentary on modern corporations. Gilbert goes on to create a contractarian ethical rendition of strategy, which he calls "strategy and justice". Through the use of a comparative critical argument, he demonstrates what he believes to be sound reasons for abandoning more traditional approaches to corporate strategy and for reconstructing it in accordance with "strategy and justice". He concludes that such attempts at advancement will provide hope that the corporation can be interpreted as a context in which humans can flourish, even as the dominant use of that concept often denies such hope.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business ethics, corporate social responsibility, corporate citizenship, values-driven management, corporate governance, and ethical leadership are necessary horizons for the legitimacy of corporations in the process of globalization. Based on hermeneutics and institutional analysis, this book discusses the place of values in corporations and the role of ethics in management. With the theories of business ethics as a starting point, it is possible to propose a vision of the good citizen corporation. The book presents theories, concepts of responsibility for stakeholder justice, and basic ethical principles of respect for autonomy, dignity, integrity, and vulnerability. This is the foundation for an analysis of the ethical relations to internal and external constituencies of the firm, i.e. shareholders, owners, investors, management, employees, consumers, and local community. The interaction with the environment is further analyzed with a focus on ethical principles as the basis for sustainability. This investigation culminates with the conceptualization of the firm as a collective and institutional moral agent. The content also includes analysis of concrete political developments in the US, Europe, and the United Nations. Finally, the book provides a framework for a new corporate strategy based on global business ethics.
