Review Section 2.3, “Comparing the Virtue Ethics of East and West,” of
the Business
Ethics text including the What Would You Do feature, “Scenario with
Aristotle and Confucius,” as well as the Link to Learning resource at the
end of Section 2.3.
Consider the following, as noted in Business Ethics, Chapter 2, Section 2.3:
Virtue ethics is the integration of personal and professional life. A
person could not act one way at home and a completely different way in
public. What might the integration of personal and professional life look
like, and how can we apply it within the relationships that are the
foundation of business? To answer this question, consider the essence of
the virtuous person that each ethical system strove to create.
Write a 2- -page paper (minimum of 500 words) in APA format comparing the
perspectives of Aristotelian and Confucian virtue ethics. Your paper should
answer the following questions:
-
How do personal and professional roles relate to one another based on
Aristotelian and Confucian virtue ethics?
-
How do Aristotle and Confucius define a virtuous individual?
-
How does the concept of virtue through education apply to individual and
professional ethical standards? How can a virtue approach help to inform
ethical conduct in professional settings?
-
Describe issues related to ethical relativism in a global context as
raised by the Chiquita case study. How could a virtue approach inform
universal standards to address issues raised in a global business
environment such as those raised in the Chiquita case?
