About this book

This volume takes a hard look at the soft practice of corporate governance. It grew out of a series of contributions from the Third ISBEE World Congress on Business Ethics that took place on July 2004 in Melbourne.

Reviews

"This book provides a cogent perspective into the ethical aspects of governance, a concept that implies stewardship and accountability in terms of stakeholders and their vital economic and material interests. Stewardship must also have ethical and moral underpinnings that define duties and responsibilities of those who govern. The second part of the book extends the theoretical dimension of ethics and governance into different regions. It provides a highly useful filter of culture that lends meaning and practicality to the theoretical perspective. This book is an important contribution to the study of ethics and governance, with equally relevant ramifications for the practitioner." - S. Prakash Sethi, President, International Center for Corporate Accountability, Inc., University Distinguished Professor, Baruch College/CUNY
