• 1. Traps for a moral management 2. What makes management moral 3. Organized morality 4. Dominant narratives – relativizing a moral imperative 5. More compliance less moralizing. A case of financial services 6. A possibility of a moral theory Conclusion Bibliography

"The book aims at developing a new analytical as well as historical framework for understanding and enhancing our corporate civilization. Barbara sets out her vision of moral behaviour and discusses the changes needed to using business as a force for good. Managers need to embrace a sense of purpose beyond making profits and to find new business opportunities to meet society’s needs.The emerging proposal advocated by the Author is to favour the transition from Corporate Social Responsibility to Corporate Civil Responsibility. Companies, in fact, are not purely private associations, rather they are little governments created by the State legislation to advance public ends.Barbara provides corporate executives clear evidence that taking ethics not just as a constraint to their behaviour, but as an argument of their objective function constitutes the surest path to success, especially in such turbulent times as the present ones. This is a book for the realist with conscience." — Stefano Zamagni, Professor of economics,University of Bologna and SAIS Europe, Johns Hopkins University
