Session 4

Inter-session tasks to be completed before session 5.

  1. Read about Kantianism, eg Boatright (2004) chapter 3 and links below.
  2. Read the UN declaration of human rights and consider the implications for businesses of the 30 articles contained. For a start, you may consider how many of the rights seem to be of some relevance to businesses.
  3. Make further log entries.
  4. Review what we have done so far.
