Getting Around the Impasse

Abstract

Summary The task of teaching ethics and social responsibility in international business courses is seemingly condemned to a positional-ity characterized by either an ethnocentric absolutism or a tolerant but unengaging relativism. This paper offers a strategy out of the absolutism-relativism impasse based on developing a grounded understanding of the elements, processes, and properties of capitalism. This common understanding can provide the base upon which informed dialogue, debate, and learning about topics associated with the ethical dimension of international business activity can be promoted.
