The International Society for Business, Economics and Ethics is a global association for the study of social and moral aspects of business and the economy. This book series draws from the worldwide membership of ISBEE and its associates to present truly international research and scholarship. The primary objective of the series is to promote business ethics globally by giving a voice to top scholars from around the world and reaching a similarly global audience. This series encompasses manuscripts that focus on ethics in the international arena of business, particularly enabling comparative studies. There is a focus on research on the responsibilities, values and behaviour of business people and organizations as they interact with stakeholders including shareholders, employees, suppliers, customers, competitors communities and governments. Incorporating a macro economic perspective, it is especially interested in considering new works dealing with globalization of business, business in developing economies, environmental questions, ethics and global communication, global economic growth, and sustainable development. The series embraces research and scholarship on all organisational forms relevant to business.
