Case Histories in Business Ethics Summary
|
Case Histories in Business Ethics reflects upon, illustrates, and extends the role of case histories (summaries of real cases) and case studies (which may be wholly or partly imaginary stories) in the teaching and studying of business ethics. This volume explores the role of the case studies in developing and generating argument in business ethics, and shows that both better understanding and practice in business ethics requires attention to ethical theory as well as to case histories. Also addressed is the use of case histories in engaging the widest range of student capacities, affective as well as cognitive, which directly affect the development of character. The connections between virtue theory and possible uses for case histories are also explained, as well as the potential use of new ways of developing case studies, such as through the use of information technologies, in the acquisition of virtues and transferable skills. |

Typically, case histories are used to illustrate assertions or arguments or to stimulate debate about an issue within business ethics. This volume examines that role, illustrating the link between case histories and more general theoretical approaches to business ethics. |
