Dedication -- Preface -- Chapter 1 Introduction -- Chapter 2 The History and Ideals of Business Education -- Chapter 3 Contemporary Foundations for Business Ethics Education -- Chapter 4 Social and Historical Foundations for Business Ethics -- Chapter 5 Business Strategy as Social Responsibility and as a Matter of Justice -- Chapter 6 Moral Learning as Moral Practice -- Chapter 7 Public Ethics and the Principles of Public Deliberation -- Chapter 8 Moral Education in the Pragmatic Pursuit of the Good -- Chapter 9 Education for Ethical Leadership: Social Responsibility and Public Deliberation -- Chapter 10 Moral Formation in Four Essential Components: Sensitivity, Judgment, Motivation, and Character -- Chapter 11 Moral Apprenticeship: Moral Formation in the Context of Practice -- Chapter 12 Conclusion: Moral Formation and Ethical Reflection in Business Education -- Index.

This book is an extended argument for the critical importance which justice and ethical leadership should have in business ethics education. The book examines the history of ideas and purposes in education, the contemporary role of business schools, and the social foundations of moral education to conclude that the pragmatic pursuit of the good must be a central aim of business strategy. To meet the challenges of facing society today, the masters of business must be moral craftsmen in a just and democratic private property economy that serves the common good. The author grounds this vision for business leadership in the centrality of systems of exchange in human society, in generating prosperity and providing for the general welfare. Business ethics education has focused primarily on moral formation of individual leaders and managers in the context of ethical codes, organizational culture, and legal compliance. Important as this approach is, it fails to generate a sufficient level of business responsibility to satisfy legitimate social concerns regarding the use of natural resources, environmental sustainability, reasonable limitation of systemic risk in capital markets, and fair allocation of goods and services. If the social purpose of business is not intentionally embraced and diligently pursued, the economy may enrich a few but impoverish the society, its resources, and its democracy. Hence this book argues for a new vision of business ethics that is grounded in public accountability of business operations and outcomes for the common good, as a matter of justice.
