74Business Ethics Research: A Global Perspective (review)Journal of Business Ethics 95 (1). 2010.Using 10 years of publication data (1999-2008) from 10 leading business ethics journals, we examine global patterns of business ethics research and contributing institutions and scholars.

Our study shows that business ethics research output is closely linked to the missions of the institutions driven by their values or religiou…Read more
