Financial, Economic, Educational, and Technological Determinants of Environmental Sustainability
This book is about financial, economic, educational, and technological determinants of environmental sustainability from a global perspective. This book analyzes different financial, economic, educational, and technological indicators on environment and sustainable development in sample of different country groups, and discusses the findings based on the related theoretical and empirical literature. The results of bibliometric analyses in the book uncover that environment sustainability has become one of the most studied issues in the literature during the past four decades. Furthermore, the results of the empirical studies also verify that financial, economic, educational, and technological factors have been significant drivers of environmental sustainability and sustainable development. Therefore, the results and recommendations made in this book will be useful for both researchers and policy-makers to arrange the policies towards making progress in environmental sustainability and overall sustainable development.

Business Ethics: A Kantian Perspective
This book applies the latest studies on Kantian ethics to show how a business can maintain economic success and moral integrity.
Critical Game Theory
The models in mainstream game theory generally assume that actors act according to a single, consistent utility function. Empirical studies, common sense, and humanistic wisdom all suggest that that assumption is too simple. This book starts with an assumption that actors are controlled by diverse, inconsistent forces and demonstrates that introducing this level of complexity allows for the creation of critical game theory models that can help to attain new insights into nature, human nature, human institutions, and human behavior. The book begins with an evolutionary, or Evo, model in which the players have concerns for the other player as well as egoistic interests. Part I analyzes the Pri...
Everyone's Business
Business is political. What are the ethics of it? Businesses are political actors. They not only fund political campaigns, take stances on social issues, and wave the flags of identity groups – they also affect politics in their everyday hiring and investment decisions. As a highly polarized public demands political alignment from the powerful businesses they deal with, what’s a company to do? Amit Ron and Abraham Singer show that the unavoidably political role of companies in modern life is both the fundamental problem and inescapable fact of business ethics: corporate power makes business ethics necessary, and business ethics must strive to mitigate corporate power. Because of its economic and social influence, Ron and Singer forcefully argue that modern business’s primary social responsibility is to democracy. Businesses must work to avoid wielding their power in ways that undermine key democratic practices like elections, public debate, and social movements. Pragmatic and urgent, Everyone’s Business offers an essential new framework for how we pursue profit—and democracy—in our increasingly divided world.
The Moral Responsibility of Firms

Haus, Markt, Staat
Nach einem weit verbreiteten Urteil gibt Kant der Ökonomie in seinem Werk keinen nennenswerten Raum. Die vorliegende Studie widerlegt dies, indem sie Kants Äußerungen zu ökonomischen Themen systematisiert: zur Selbstständigkeit, zum Kaufmann, zum Handel, zum Geld, zur „Staatswirthschaft" sowie zum technischen Fortschritt. Sie erschließt Kants Ökonomie aus der Ergänzung rechtlicher und ethischer Pflichten durch deren anthropologische Ausführungsbedingungen. Dabei geht sie aus von einem zeitgenössischen Verständnis der Ökonomie als Wissenschaft vom Wohlstand. Im deutschsprachigen Raum des 18. Jahrhunderts konkurrieren hier drei Paradigmen miteinander: das aristotelische, das smit...
