Using Literature to Teach Ethics in the Business Curriculum

Abstract

This article explores the problems and prospects of incorporating ethics education into the MBA curriculum and the business communication classroom. Although ethics is generally recognized as a crucial area of study, there is little agreement about how it should be included or taught. Moreover, these disagreements often reflect deeply different perspectives on basic pedagogy, the role of business schools, and the links between business and other disciplines. The author argues that literature provides a useful means of restructuring course work to provide ethics instruction and to forge needed links between business and the humanities.
