ETH 237 - Business Ethics

What does society have a right to expect from corporations in the realm of moral respon­si­bility?  Do corporate leaders have any obligations beyond serving the interests of stockholders and obeying the law?  Do they have moral obligations to other “stakeholders” such as employees, consumers, suppliers, members of communities living near factories, et al.?  This course will address these and other related questions.
