Call for Papers
“The Ethics of Commerce: An Inquiry into the Religious Roots and Spiritual Context of Ethical Business Practice”
We are hosting an international gathering of scholars, religious leaders and business professionals. Papers will be presented on various religious traditions’ perspectives on the ethics of commerce. We would like to address the following questions: Is a purely secular business ethics irremediably deficient? Does a substantive business ethics require a religious and spiritual framework? To what extent does current business practice reflect a spiritual dimension? What are the various religious traditions’ perspectives on the ethics of commerce? Can the various religious traditions generate a non-adversarial, consistent, and coherent business ethic? Is there a role for religion and spirituality in a global and post-modern business world? Conceptual, historical, normative, and empirical proposals are welcome from all disciplines.
Deadline for the submission of papers and abstracts is March 31, 2004. Notice of acceptance will be on or before April 15, 2004. Please send papers and requests for information to:
