Honorable Business

In Honorable Business, James R. Otteson explores the idea that business, when conducted ethically and thoughtfully, can serve as a valuable and moral activity that promotes individual flourishing and societal prosperity. Drawing on Aristotelian principles, he discusses how honorable business aligns with justice, autonomy, and good moral judgment, presenting a pragmatic Code of Business Ethics rooted in professionalism and moral responsibility. The book offers a nuanced perspective on how business can be not only acceptable but potentially praiseworthy within a just and humane society.
