China: Confucius in the Shadows
Earlier this decade a statue of Confucius appears suddenly in Tiananmen Square in Beijing. It is facing Chairman Mao’s statue in front of the Forbidden City. Mysteriously, it disappears a few days later. Why was it removed overnight? Where is it now?? No clear answers seem to have emerged. Most communist regimes have tried to make a break with the traditions of the past believing them to be the cause of all ills in society. But has the historical experience of Communist regimes shown that to be true? Today, Buddhist, Daoist and Confucian temples across cities and villages in China are crowded with people offering prayers. People swarm to pay their respects to their traditional sages. Like ...
Unternehmensethik im Spannungsfeld der Kulturen und Religionen
Unternehmerisches Handeln ist kaum mehr auf einzelne Nationalstaaten begrenzt, und so bewegt sich die Unternehmensethik heute zwangslaufig in einem interkulturellen Kontext. Da transnationale Unternehmen in verschiedenen Landern und Kulturkreisen operieren, steht die Unternehmensethik im Spannungsfeld, einerseits allgemein gultige Aussagen zu treffen, andererseits aber auch den Differenzen und unterschiedlichen Wertvorstellungen Rechnung zu tragen. In diesem Band wird der Frage nach einer Unternehmensethik in einem globalen und interkulturellen Kontext nachgegangen, wobei sowohl grundsatzliche unternehmensethische Konzepte als auch praktische Anwendungen diskutiert werden.

Given that most firms only emphasize compliance in ethics training, there is vast room for additional development. Tr...
