A moral basis for corporate philanthropy
Journal of Business Ethics 12 (10):745 - 751 (1993)
Abstract
The authors argue that corporate philanthropy is far too important as a social instrument for good to depend on ethical egoism for its support. They claim that rule utilitarianism provides a more compelling, though not exclusive, moral foundation. The authors cite empirical and legal evidence as additional support for their claim.My notes
