Business ethics and politics
Article Abstract:
Business ethics is related to politics in the sense that there are problems in business ethics that can be solved only by providing political solutions. Politics becomes representative of the commitment to different basic values and provides a compromise between conservative and liberal extremes. Business ethics also exists as a distinct entity from politics, particularly in terms of basic ethical norms such as sexual harassment, lying and wanton injury. Thus, business ethics has a dual relationship with politics which is distinguishable only through the issues that are involved.
