Description

CHAPTER ONE

Stakeholder 受决定影响者 In a general sense, a stakeholder is anyone who can be affected by decisions made within a business. More specifically, stakeholders are considered to be those people who are necessary for the functioning of a business.

Ethics 伦理 Derived from the Greek word ethos, which refers to those values, norms, beliefs, and expectations that determine how people within a culture live and act. Ethics steps back from such standards for how people do act, and reflects on the standards by which people should live and act.

normative ethics 规范伦理 (为什么要这样做) As a normative discipline, ethics deals with norms and standards of appropriate and proper (normal) behavior.

descriptive ethics 描述伦理 (为什么会这样做) As practiced by many social scientists, provides a descriptive and empirical account of those standards that actually guide behavior. When we say that they are descriptive, we refer to the fact that they provide an account of how and why people do act the way they do—they describe.

Ethical values (伦理价值 会让人活得好的东西 如尊重快乐自由) Those properties 特性 of life that contribute to human well-being and a life well lived. Ethical values would include such things as happiness, respect, dignity, integrity, freedom, companionship, and health.
