No D/378, IESE Research Papers from IESE Business School

Abstract: This paper is a survey of the development of the social, political, cultural and economic background of business in Spain since 1940. It aims to show how the ethical values, attitudes and problems of Spanish managers have changed in these years. First, the global evolution of this background is explained. Then, several relevant problems are discussed, namely the attitudes of business towards the State and the law (with an aside on the attitudes of society towards profit and wealth), corruption and the grey economy, taxes, and irregular labour. The article concludes with a survey of the scientific developments of business ethics in Spain.
