Spirituality as a foundation for freedom and creative imagination in international business ethics
Article Abstract:
Multinational corporations and their executives should draw upon spiritual principles and values from religions if they want to have genuine moral signposts guiding their decisions. Thus, spirituality in the broad sense is a much better guide than management science, analytical philosophy and social science that currently guide their activities. However, the identification of spiritual principles and values requires a moral imagination and an openness to values espoused by world's religions.

Ethics in tourism - reality or hallucination
Article Abstract:
The tourism industry should develop a code of ethics to govern its decisions and dealings with customers. That is because the industry is community-based and service-oriented and its operations have a sociocultural impact. By enforcing a code of ethics, the industry not only fulfills its abovementioned obligations, but also improves profits, public image and employee relations.
