Intergenerational Justice as the Mission Statement of Business – In Theory and PracticeThe term “intergenerational justice” is becoming one of the key words in today's society, as is impressively documented in its adoption in the platforms of political parties. The fact that this new term is relevant to businesses is irrefutable, given that today two thirds of the world’s largest economies are no longer government-run but rather transnational corporations. With power comes also responsibility. With the combination of intergenerational justice and corporate policy, this volume offers an approach for a social philosophy that transcends the ideas of corporate social responsibility, corporate governance und corporate sustainability. As a manual for businesses, business leaders, politicians and responsible consumers, this book compiles current research and provides well-founded insight into this socio-political discussion.
