Evolving Business Ethics
Business ethics as a discipline has been evolving rapidly, and indeed needs to evolve constantly. This evolution is mandated more urgently than ever before as we plunge headlong, and with increasing velocity, into the era of automation, artificial intelligence and digitization. In a scenario where legal and policy guidelines are scarce or ambiguous, the role of business ethics in guiding academic and industrial research and innovation cannot be understated. Ethical codes and guidelines are needed for educators, scientists, industries, law and policy makers, as well as for the general public engaged with emerging technologies not only to ensure a smooth transition into the autonomous and digi...

Ziele und Werte "sozialistischer Marktwirtschaft"
Nach Jahrzehnten der Zurückhaltung präsentiert sich die Volksrepublik China heute als selbstbewusste Weltmacht. Dieser beispiellose Aufstieg wäre ohne die rasante gesellschaftliche und wirtschaftliche Entwicklung kaum denkbar. Dabei gibt der ordnungspolitische Rahmen bis heute Rätsel auf. In der Verfassung ist eine "sozialistische Marktwirtschaft" festgeschrieben, eine bürokratisch autoritäre Ordnung, in der der Staat und damit die Kommunistische Partei die Regeln vorgeben. Die Staats- und Parteiführung betont zudem verstärkt die nationale Sonderstellung Chinas als Gegenmodell zu den liberalen Gesellschaften des Westens und treibt gewaltige Entwicklungsprojekte voran, die auf politische Dominanz abzielen. Der Autor analysiert die aktuelle Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftsordnung und legt deren Wertefundament offen. Damit wird das kritische Nachdenken über die Ordnungsethik westlicher Ökonomie und ein verantwortbares Verhalten gegenüber China angeregt.
The Rage
The early twenty-first century has been defined by a rise in Islamist radicalisation and a concurrent rise in far right extremism. This book explores the interaction between the 'new' far right and Islamist extremists and considers the consequences for the global terror threat. Julia Ebner argues that far right and Islamist extremist narratives - 'The West is at war with Islam' and 'Muslims are at war with the West' - complement each other perfectly, making the two extremes rhetorical allies and building a spiralling torrent of hatred - 'The Rage'. By looking at extremist movements both online and offline, she shows how far right and Islamist extremists have succeeded in penetrating each other's echo chambers as a result of their mutually useful messages. Based on first-hand interviews, this book introduces readers to the world of reciprocal radicalisation and the hotbeds of extremism that have developed - with potentially disastrous consequences - in the UK, Europe and the US.
Integrity and the Virtues of Reason
Scherkoske situates integrity as an epistemic virtue and moves the debate surrounding impartial moral theories in important new directions.
International Human Resource Management
Conducting business across national borders is nothing new; the Knights Templar were banking internationally as long ago as 1135. But modern globalization processes raise different challenges, and as the world becomes smaller and labour movements more common, an international understanding of human resource management is essential. The second edition of International HRM provides a fully updated and revised analysis of this important area. Its innovative, multi-disciplinary approach allows a holistic picture to emerge in which key issues are assessed from organizational, individual and societal perspectives. The collection is divided into three parts: the contemporary internationalization co...
ECSCW 2005
The emergence and widespread use personal computers and network technologies have seen the development of interest in the use of computers to support cooperative work. This volume presents the proceedings of the ninth European conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). This is a multidisciplinary area that embraces the development of new technologies grounded in actual cooperative practices. These proceedings contain a collection of papers that reflect the variegated research activities in the field. The volume includes papers addressing novel interaction technologies for CSCW systems, new models and architectures for groupware systems, studies of communication and coordinatio...
Phenomenological Inquiry in Psychology
This fine new book, the third in a series, brings psychologists up to date on the advances of phenomenological research methods in illuminating the nature of human awareness and ex periences. In the more congenial and welcoming intellectual climate of the 1990s, phe nomenological methods have moved to the forefront of discourse on research methods that support and advocate an expanding view of science. In Valle and King (1978), phenome nological methods were presented as alternatives to behavioral methods. In Valle and Halling (1989), phenomenological methods were advanced to perspectives in psychology. This new volume is even less cautious, indeed bolder, in relation to conventional methods...
