A ética nos negócios envolve muitas áreas, como cultura, ética e comportamentos de negócios. De um modo geral, ética universal refere-se aos direitos humanos básicos e obrigações de acordo a todos os seres humanos. A “Teoria Integrativa do Contrato Social” pode ser usada como uma ferramenta eficaz para analisar a ética universal. No âmbito da ética universal, as culturas Chinesa e Ocidental têm as suas características éticas específicas. Especificamente falando, a ética ocidental é baseada em regras e enfatiza a igualdade e os direitos individuais para evitar os conflitos entre os membros sociais; a ética chinesa é baseada em relações familiares e que tenta manter uma ordem social estável. Este artigo coloca particular ênfase para discutir a questão da ética nos negócios na China, que tem como objetivo despertar a consciência ética das empresas chinesas. Comparativamente falando, os sistemas éticos chineses têm uma dupla influência sobre comportamentos empresariais. Por um lado, as empresas chinesas tendem a gerir emocionalmente, tendo a relação interpessoal harmoniosa, alta coesão e um modelo de decisão centralizado; por outro lado, o nepotismo, o sistema dos pais, a negligência dos direitos individuais e da igualdade e a fraqueza da gestão institucionalizada é a doença das empresas chinesas. Apenas lidando com os conflitos éticos entre as diferentes culturas, poderão as empresas multinacionais Chinesas ter sucesso globalmente e receber na China mais investimento de empresas estrangeiras2016-03-30T14:19:11Z2015-01-01T00:00:00Z20152015-06info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfapplication/octet-streamhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/11137TID:201210975engZheng, Mininfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:43:14Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/11137Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:20:20.025732Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
