Business ethics in Turkey: an empirical investigation with special emphasis on gender
Article Abstract:
The critical situation of business ethics in Turkey is evident in the high number of ethics violations involving politicians and business professionals. Several researches were conducted on the issue with particular focus on the ethical beliefs of managers. An examination of the ethical judgments of Turkish managers suggested a gender difference in their ethics score. Ethics score was higher among female managers compared to the ethics score of male managers. Moreover, managerial factors such as position and department were found to have very little effects on the ethics scores.

Does marketing ethics really have anything to say? - A critical inventory of the literature
Article Abstract:
The contribution and the conceptual uniqueness of the content of the field of marketing ethics were examined via a critical inventory of the marketing ethics literature. The results suggested that marketing ethics remains no more than an underdeveloped concept in terms of conceptual content and pragmatic behavioral guidance. Possible reasons for this include the few score of ethical recommendations contained in the marketing literature and irrelevance of the particular philosophy such as teleology or deontology as grounds for different ethical rules in marketing.

Comparative ethical report card: a study of Australian and Canadian manager's perceptions of international marketing ethics problems
Article Abstract:
Several ethical problems in international marketing confront business managers. Among these problems are small and large scale bribery, tax evasion practices and involvement in political affairs. The results of a study on Australian and Canadian business managers pointed to large-scale bribery as the most important ethical problem while small scale bribery was named the most common. However, the results also suggested the existence of a difference in the managers' attitudes towards the ethical problems' importance as compared to their frequency of occurrences.
