The ethical and legal scandals at Enron, WorldCom, Tyco and many other businesses in the United States, Europe and Asia have shaken people&amp;#8242;s confidence in business. <strong>Corporate Integrity and Accountability</strong> seeks to address questions of corporate integrity as they arise for financial reporting, executive compensation, globalization, and business ethics itself. In so doing it asks the following questions: <br> <ul> <li>What is the current meaning of corporate integrity? </li> <li>How should we go about analyzing and responding to unethical and corrupt behavior both at home and abroad? </li> <li>What measures can be undertaken by corporations within their own walls to address these problems? </li> <li>What groups and perspectives need to be taken into account with regard to CEO compensation?</li></ul> <p>These are a few of the many topics that the chapters in this book discuss under the heading of corporate integrity and accountability.<br> <br> The chapters are the product of leading business ethicists--both academic and practitioner--in the U.S. and Europe, resulting in the application of different methodologies, sources, and forms of argument. This gives the reader a sense not only of the complexity of some of the ethical issues business faces, but also the richness of the various resources that are available to address these issues.<br> <br> <strong>Corporate Integrity and Accountability</strong> is ideally suited as a text for courses in the following: business ethics, corporate social responsibility, current ethical issues in business, and corporate citizenship. </p>
