Welcome to the homepage of Handbook of the Philosophical Foundations of Business Ethics, a comprehensive reference work from Springer.

The Handbook of the Philosophical Foundations of Business Ethics will be a standard reference handbook in the field of business ethics. Unlike other reference works in this field, it will primarily cover the theoretical basis of business ethics: its philosophical foundations. These range from historical positions such as Aristotelianism, Kantianism and Marxism to systematic issues such as justice, religious issues, rights and globalization or gender.
