This volume is intended as a reference for those interested in the relationship between business strategy and business ethics, broadly conceived. Several articles have been selected from various leading journals in management, strategy and ethics. An introductory chapter provides an overview of the articles but it also relates them systematically to a fundamental dualism involving values, ethics and politics, all viewed from the perspective of business and business studies.

Ethics Through Corporate Strategy is a daring challenge to anyone who uses the customary language of business in America. It is daring because Daniel Gilbert argues that we should discard two popular ways of linking business and ethics. It is challenging, because Gilbert proceeds from the premise that everyone who uses a language of business is responsible for the ethical implications of that way of talking. This work is one demonstration of how we can relocate conversations about business in the larger conversation that we know as liberal education.

This book investigates how different types of Japanese management systems are able to motivate stakeholders, including employees, top management, stockholders, customers and transaction partners, to participate actively in the organizational behavior that improves business performance. The various systems motivating stakeholders are examined in five sections: strategy and business restructuring for enhancing the business value; management control systems and budgeting; cost management; management accounting for supply chain and shared services; and, process management.

There have been many books written about how to apply the concept of corporate strategy, yet few discuss the meaningfulness of the applications involved. Until now, not a single book has been written about the reasons people give to justify their study and advocacy of corporate strategy as a method of talking about the modern corporation. Taking a cue from the nineteenth-century philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Gilbert argues in The Twilight of Corporate Strategy that those who study corporate strategy can begin to justify their efforts once they take the very meaning of corporate strategy to be an open, ethical question. Gilbert creates a Nietzschean analysis in which he places the idea of corporate strategy in the "twilight" between the "daylight" of continued usage and the "darkness" of irrelevance for humans. This unique analysis is based on an exploration of the corporate strategy concept in an ethical twilight. Gilbert reinterprets the dominant contemporary approach, which he calls "strategy through process", as an ethical commentary on modern corporations. Gilbert goes on to create a contractarian ethical rendition of strategy, which he calls "strategy and justice". Through the use of a comparative critical argument, he demonstrates what he believes to be sound reasons for abandoning more traditional approaches to corporate strategy and for reconstructing it in accordance with "strategy and justice". He concludes that such attempts at advancement will provide hope that the corporation can be interpreted as a context in which humans can flourish, even as the dominant use of that concept often denies such hope.
