This book explores how ethics and the moral context of business has evolved historically in the influential management theories and concepts. It looks at how managerial thought accommodates morality, values and ethics and demonstrates the emerging patterns of ethical conduct to illustrate how moral aspects of management and organizational practice can become peripheral. The author examines a diverse range of data sources such as the most seminal books in management and academic papers published in the mainstream academic literature. The readings selected in the process are subject to critical analysis and are complemented by an exploratory study of the financial services industry, based on semi-structured in-depth interviews. The novelty of the proposed approach comes firstly from consolidation of many perspectives such as management, organization studies or business anthropology rather than focusing on one particular sub-discipline, secondly, using a mixed methodology, combining literature reviews with empirical, exploratory research based on interviews and thirdly from including a narrative context in the analysis and proposed future theory framework. The book will appeal to students, researchers and scholars who teach ethics in the field of economics or business. It will prove useful in advancing the theory and research on moral management. It will appeal to management practitioners and be helpful in creating business practices fostering moral sensitivity. Those interested in setting future development directions may find the proposed consolidation of theoretical and empirical evidence useful for the design of future policies.
