Ethics and socially responsible investment : a philosophical approach

Ransome, William 1976- (Author). Sampford, C. J. G. (Charles J. G.) (Added Author).

Summary: This volume breaks new ground by approaching Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) as an explicitly ethical practice in financial markets. The work explains the origins and conceptual structure of SRI and links its pursuit to both its deeper philosophical foundations and the broader, multi-dimensional global movement towards greater social responsibility in global markets.
