INVITATION TO THE CONFERENCE
&
CALL FOR PAPERS
The ethics of businesses and organisations have become a matter of wide
public debate since the news about Enron and WorldCom broke. These
stories
have focussed many diffuse strands of concern over ethical standards in
both
the private and public sectors. The conference, which brings together
two
well established conferences on business ethics, is a forum in which
directors, managers, academics and others can meet to debate these
challenges and argue about what should be done. The main streams of the
conference will be;
· Ethical theory and business
· Ethics and HRM
· Ethics and the voluntary & charity sectors
· Fraud, honesty and corporate governance
· Corporate citizenship and social responsibility
· Learning to practice
· Ethical managerial practice
However papers on any aspect of business ethics from a wide range of
perspectives and disciplines will be welcomed.
Submission of abstracts and proposals
Papers will be selected by peer review. If you would like to present a
paper
please send, preferably in electronic format either
· An outline proposal for a paper (about 500words long) headed by
your
title, name, address, and email address
or
· A completed paper and an abstract (2100-200 words long) headed
by
your title, name, address and email address
to the conference administrator by 20th. December 2002. The paper may
be
intended only for debate at the conference or authors may take the
opportunity to have their papers considered for inclusion in a future
issue
of Business Ethics:A European Review. Everyone presenting a paper will
be
expected to register for a place at the conference and pay the fee.
