Provides an original account of international business ethics grounded in cosmopolitan human rights theory

Transnational companies (TNCs) operate in a variety of political jurisdictions and legal frameworks. As international trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) continue to increase, TNCs based in industrialized 'home' nations are gaining enormous economic and political influence in developing 'host' nations. Corporations operating internationally, particularly in nations with limited regulatory and enforcement resources, are often free to determine whether they will follow existing laws and guidelines regarding consumer protection, worker safety, and environmental protection.

The Ethics of Global Business provides clear and pragmatic guidance for business ... Read more

  • Presents and defends a theory of moral legitimacy that views TNCs as agents of justice
  • Offers an alternative ethical conception of CSR that integrates a cosmopolitan human rights perspective
  • Provides critical and ethical analysis of recent United Nations (UN) initiatives on business and human rights including the UN tripartite framework recently approved by the UN Human Rights Council
  • Analyzes current Base of the Pyramid (BoP) strategies
  • Defends minimum standards for working conditions in global supply chains and analyzes wage exploitation in developing nations
