'Philosophy of Management and Sustainability is a very important subject. This book is a must-read for academics, scholars and practitioners of CSR, business ethics and sustainability.'
During the 1960s, Japanese philosopher Tomonobu Imamichi (1922-2012) invented the discipline of eco-ethica, says Rendtorff, not only as bioethics or environmental ethics, but as a general ethics of the need for the good life on the planet. Therefore, he argues, the philosophy of management and sustainability can be and should be part of the search for responsible collective ethics and group ethics. He explores that dimension in sections on from corporate social responsibility and business ethics to sustainable development goals; the philosophy of management and ethical economics of sustainability; foundations of philosophy of management, ethics, and sustainability; and the responsible management of sustainability.
