Doing Well and Good

A volume in Ethics in PracticeSeries Editors Robert A. Giacalone Temple Universityand Carole L. Jurkiewicz Louisiana State UniversityEthical business creates social value. That's the theme of this bold new volume heralding and defending thisrapidly-growing new conception of capitalism making its way into the mainstream. It provides clear andsuccinct guidelines for how to evaluate what counts as an ethical business as well as how and why ethicalbusinesses tend to succeed better over the long term. The book is jargon-free and targeted primarily at thoughtleadersand academics in business and philosophy who will want to use it in their business ethics classes. Eachchapter has been selected for its ability to engage a wide audience without oversimplifying the content.All twelve chapters are original and authored by leading business ethicists including William Shaw Tony Simons Duane Windsor and MarkSchwartz. Each piece makes use of recent empirical evidence or ethical theory (or both) in order to present a detailed yet overarching picture of whatethical business looks like--and how to achieve it--in today's global environment. It is thus divided into three subsections:1. The Role of Corporate Culture2. A New For-Profit Paradigm3. Making the Change Happen: Voluntary and Regulatory ExamplesPerhaps the book's greatest strength is its blending of cutting-edge philosophy psychology and management theory into a cohesive provocative andaccessible format. Hence it promises to launch a wide discussion of what exactly we should expect the moral duty of business to be.
