Abstract:
Evidence available shows that the ethics review process in Malaysia suffers from a range of problems (Kaur, 2011). These problems may be the result of a lack of training given for REC members and relatedly, it may stem from a lack of understanding of the role of RECs. Since Malaysia is striving to promote the country as a research hub for international collaboration, it is important that the ethics review system that is in place is well set up to ensure only ethical research are being approved. The aim of this thesis is to develop three important key elements of a framework that can be used to

Abstract:
Research literature identifies ethical leadership, a leadership grounded in ethical norms and practice, as a critical vehicle for achieving organizational goals and fostering good governance. However, little research on leadership has focused on the public sector, leaving a gap in the literature. Leadership in governance is a concern in local government in Nigeria; in spite of the 1976 reforms, the country still lacks good governance and corresponding socioeconomic development. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore an ethical leadership model, and determine how such a mode

This integrating essay is based on an Aristotelian-Thomism in exploring ethical decisionmaking and corporate governance mechanisms to address issues of corporate deviant behaviour, and ultimately, human flourishing. Eight (8) peer-reviewed journal articles analyse the causes of moral failings of corporate governance and ethical decision-making mechanisms, and propose to address these ethical deficits: (1) Virtue Theory as a Dynamic Theory of Business proposes a meta-theory of business that links the concepts of virtues, the common good, and the dynamic economy, (2) A Communitarian Model of Bus

Having dominated policy agenda in developed economies for well over three decades, corporate governance is now getting to the top of the policy agenda in developing countries (Abor and Adjasi, 2007).

This has been ignored by the literature. This study investigates the ethical dimensions of corporate governance practice in Ghanaian public sector and pr

Managing public sector projects in Malaysia is a unique challenge. This is because of the ethical issues involved during the project procurement process.

Where banking reform goes from here is not entirely certain. It could even be said to have reached something of a fork in the road. The obvious way open to us is to continue down the pa

My research and publications over the past 25 years can be related to two major themes: building up the case for business ethics education in UK Business schools, and the development of a virtue ethics approach to institution building in business and management. My business ethics research papers have been focused on the exploration and use of virtue theory as an approach to applied ethics in the context of business and organisational life, exploring subjects such as loyalty, codes of conduct, executive remuneration, job security, health hazards, service work, shareholder responsibilities, tem

A fraude nos negócios do âmbito empresarial causa temor para a alta direção das organizações, devido à complexidade e ao dinamismo dos processos corporativos, que ensejam ao descontrole da ética de responsabilidade. Contudo, as agências reguladoras, juntamente com as entidades de fiscalização e padronização, bem como os órgãos de repressão aos crimes de corrupção, estão promovendo a integridade nas empresas através das exigências da governança corporativa na administração, com foco na lisura e competência da gestão. Nesse contexto, o sistema de compliance tem função essencial para assegurar a

Abstract:
Research ethics has become integrated into what it means to conduct good science. This thesis is about the nature of that integration, which I argue is not neutral, carrying with it ideas of duty, moral obligations, organisational mechanisms, and processes of monitoring. For developing countries to participate in global research, the pre-requisite of ethical review has necessitated a growth in capacity building exercises. The chapters aim to elucidate ethnographically the activities and implications of ‘capacity building’ activities in biomedical research ethics, through following the training

Water is critical for food production, food security, and health. Water quality management influences freshwater sustainability, land, and energy administration. Global agriculture accounts for more than 70% of all water consumption; the fertilizer, manure, and pesticide overspills are chief sources of water pollution worldwide. On a global scale, food-related waste directly impacts local food production and water resource management. The purpose of this multiple-case study on the food and beverage (FB) industry in the State of Georgia was to identify successful strategies for improving water

Abstract:
Corporate governance of Thailand has been developed and reformed, particularly after 1997 Asian financial crisis. However, problems regarding director’s responsibilities are still entrenched in company law and corporate practices. The challenges of Thai corporate governance on director’s responsibilities are found in the areas of director’s accountability and minority shareholders protection. Legal provisions on director’s fiduciary duties and director’s duty of care and skill are unable to regulate director’s misbehaviors. Directors are not fully aware of their proper responsibilities to the

Abstract:
This thesis investigates how the different aspects and claims associated with moral relativism can be applied to the issue of corporate governance convergence. The question of how corporate governance models may be converging around the world is considered within the law, finance and management literature. To date, however, there has been no detailed consideration from a moral perspective of whether such convergence should occur. This study investigates this question, using South Africa as a case study, through an analysis of the claims of Descriptive, Metaethical and Normative moral relativis

The most valuable resources common to all human health research endeavors are those individuals who voluntarily subject themselves to potential risks for the hope of improving human health and advancing medical science. Although human subjects’ participation in health research is acknowledged as instrumental to our understanding of health and illness and thereby an interest to society, the role of human subjects in determining how research is conducted, monitored, and, if successful, translated into health care, has been minimal until fairly recently.

Abstract:
India is rapidly becoming established as a major player in the stem cell sector. However, concerns have been raised about the use of unproven stem cell therapies and the exploitation of parents for cord blood banking. This study aims to explore the nature of stem cell activities, how key stakeholders generate expectations around them and frame the ethical issues they raise, and why the biomedical governance system is unable to regulate these emerging practices. The study involved a survey, documentary analysis and qualitative interviews with key scientists, clinicians, representatives of firms
