RT Article T1 Business Ethics Research: A Global Perspective JF Journal of business ethics VO 95 IS 1 SP 39 OP 53 A1 Chan, Kam C. A1 Fung, Hung-Gay A1 Yau, Jot LA English PB Springer Science + Business Media B. V YR 2010 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1785672134 AB Using 10 years of publication data (1999–2008) from 10 leading business ethics journals, we examine global patterns of business ethics research and contributing institutions and scholars. Although U.S. academic institutions continue to lead in the contributions toward business ethics research, Asian and European institutions have made significant progress. Our study shows that business ethics research output is closely linked to the missions of the institutions driven by their values or religious belief. An additional analysis of the productivity of each highly ranked institution suggests that business ethics research is highly concentrated in a limited number of eminent scholars within each institution.
