Excellent- More about Business Ethics for a Material World: An Ecological Approach to Object Stewardship
Consumers and green marketers are recognizing that material things, not firms, must be made responsible. Ryan Burg argues that material things are fundamental features of moral life and that professionals must act as stewards to facilitate object care. By tracing the origins and disposal of workplace objects through a material network, businesses and employees can discover the outcomes for which they are responsible, and managers can align ethics, sustainability, and governance with a truly global formulation of responsibility.

Consumers and green marketers are increasingly recognizing that material things, not firms, must be held responsible for their impact on the environment. While many scholars in ethics, sustainability, and governance focus on people and organizations, ignoring the flows of things, this book by Ryan Burg argues that material things are fundamental features of moral life, serving as valuable instruments and guides for responsibility. Unless care is taken for these non-living entities, living things cannot be protected. Burg views the global economy as a network of material transfers, and he argues that professionals must act as stewards to facilitate object care. By tracing the origins and disposal of workplace objects through this material network, businesses and employees can discover the outcomes for which they are responsible, and managers can align ethics, sustainability, and governance with a truly global formulation of responsibility.
