Chapter Chapter 1 in Morality and Corporate Governance: Firm Integrity and Spheres of Justice, 2013, pp 1-7 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This book collects my thoughts on the relationship between morality and economics. I have been mulling over this issue for a long time, since the mid 1980s, when I wrote the introduction to a collection of works of seminal importance [1] edited by Hopt and Teubner. It was their work which prompted my research, and its outcome was a number of papers that opened a new stage in my thoughts on this theme [2]. In essence, I realised the need to consider the philosophical dimension of the relationship between morality and the most significant, modern, social aggregate of economic action, that is, the firm.
