Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In this paper, co-authored with Rosemarie Monge, Associate Professor Ethics and Business Law, OPUS College of Business, we respond to three trends in contemporary normative business ethics. The first is to work deductively to apply a single moral theory to individual cases, an approach that has been dubbed as “high theory.” The second is the relative emphasis on political philosophy and questions about corporations. The third is the view that the norms of business are separate from, and, in many cases, more permissive than the norms of everyday life. In response, we argue that a central task of business ethics is to help practitioners determine what is the right thing to do, and that the resources of everyday morality are capacious enough to provide a framework to help guide individual actors across a wide range of commercial activity.
