Call for Papers
The Journal of Business Ethics Announce a Special Issue on
MNCs in Emerging Markets
Paper deadline: December 30, 2007
The special issue of Journal of Business Ethics will focus on
business ethics and corporate social responsibility of multinational
corporations (MNCs) in emerging markets. Although both theoretical and
empirical papers are welcome, the emphasis will be placed on high quality
empirical papers that have some practical managerial or public policy
related orientation. We welcome papers grounded in various theoretical
perspectives and utilizing various research methodologies.
“The Journal of Business Ethics publishes original articles from a wide
variety of methodological and disciplinary perspectives concerning ethical
issues related to business. Since its initiation in 1980, the editors have
encouraged the broadest possible scope. The term `business' is understood
in a wide sense to include all systems involved in the exchange of goods
and services, while `ethics' is circumscribed as all human action aimed at
securing a good life. Systems of production, consumption, marketing,
advertising, social and economic accounting, labor relations, public
relations and organizational behavior are analyzed from a moral viewpoint.
The style and level of dialogue involve all who are interested in business
ethics - the business community, universities, government agencies and
consumer groups” (Aims and scope of JBE).
