An interfaith code for international business

Article Abstract:

Corporate social responsibility is largely unknown in many former socialist republics and other nations with different cultural values to those in the west. It is commonly claimed that there is no solution to such disparate views. To address the problem, an interfaith initiative led by the Duke of Edinburgh has been set up to establish an international framework for shared business values. The project aims to classify common business dilemmas with reference to the religions of Christians, Jews and Muslims.
