Ethical trading

David E. Hawkins

Chapter Chapter 10 in Corporate Social Responsibility, 2006, pp 76-85 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract It would be easy to assume from reading the financial press and some of the more explosive daily papers that all business was corrupt. It is not hard from that point to make the further extrapolation that every business is exploiting everyone in order to boost profits. Like all things the truth is often a shade less black and white: the majority of businesspeople would like to operate in a straightforward manner. The realities of global trading are complex and thus so is the spectrum of issues that are inter-linked under the broad heading of ethical trading.
