The central point of debate in this timely and important book is to identify and evaluate the moral challenges of what contributors refer to as 'responsible global capitalism'. How can we develop a global economic architecture which is efficient, morally acceptable, geographically inclusive, and sustainable over time? If global capitalism - arguably the most efficient wealth creating system currently known to man - is to be both economically viable and socially acceptable, each of its four constituent institutions (markets, governments, supranational agencies, and civil society) must not only be technically competent, but also be buttressed and challenged by a strong moral ethos. the editor, John Dunning, is one of the most distinguished and widely acclaimed scholars in international business. He has gathered together a stellar group of academics, politicians, and moralists to address the fundamental issues of our economic and moral systems. Gordon Brown,, Jonathan Sacks, Joseph Stiglitz, Hans Küng, Michael Novak, Shirely [sic] Williams, and a dozen other leading thinks in international business and ethics, identify the pressing moral imperatives of global capitalism and proffer useful and practical advice on how best these may be tackled. - Back cover.
