    Unpacking green choices: Exploring altruistic and egoistic values in shaping environmental identities and packaging preferences.Saniya Aggarwal, Komal Dhanda, Ramesh Kumar & Usha Arora - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):523-546.
    Personal values act as guiding principles that motivate individuals and influence their lifestyle decisions, especially altruistic and egoistic values in green consumption decisions. Sustainable consumption is always portrayed as pro-social behavior showcasing the volunteering activity (altruism) of green consumers; however, consumers buy green products beyond altruistic reasons. Building on these lines, this study aims to examine green consumers and their motivation to pay a premium price for green packaging. This descriptive study has collected opinions related to the constructs from 264 (...)

  2. Reimagining functional narratives: recoding the DNA of corporate social responsibility.Garima Gupta - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):491-521.
    ‘Corporate Social Responsibility’ (‘CSR’) has gained popularity in corporate as well as academic debates, especially since the 2008 financial crisis (Okpara & Idowu, 2013). Although CSR as an idea has not failed, concerning gaps remain in the theory and practice of CSR. More particularly, in India, the legislature has adopted a ‘one size fits all’ approach which permits businesses to interpret and implement CSR based on their unique circumstances. This leads to persistent and escalating concerns regarding its implementation and limits. (...)

    Navigating the interplay of legal frameworks and corporate governance: the impact on asset quality in an emerging economy.Prashant Kumar Gupta & Seema Sharma - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):403-434.
    This study examines the impact of regulatory changes on seven distinct corporate governance determinants of asset quality in Indian banks. We focus on the Companies Act of 2013 and the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code of 2016, two key pieces of legislation that have significantly impacted the Indian banking industry. Using the General Method of Moments, a dynamic panel data method, we analyze data from 45 Indian public and private sector banks from 2010 to 2019. Our results suggest that board functioning (...)

    Authority and responsibilities of an alliance manager: sustainability alliance case studies between corporate and heterogeneous sectors.Mitsue Ishida - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):577-610.
    In a world undergoing rapid change, the effective use of strategic alliances is important for a company to gain a competitive advantage. While previous research has mentioned the importance of understanding the authority and responsibilities of a successful alliance manager, few studies have investigated this topic using systematically gathered real-world data. This study aims to determine the kind of authority and responsibilities an alliance manager has in successful sustainability alliance projects. These generally require cooperation with players in heterogeneous sectors. An (...)

    Unlocking the link: protection motivation intention in ethics programs and unethical workplace behavior.Taslima Jannat, Shamshul Arefin, Mosharrof Hosen, Nor Asiah Omar, Abdullah Al Mamun & Mohammad Enamul Hoque - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):461-488.
    This study examined how protection motivation intention and other cognitive appraisal processes influence the relationship between compliance and value-oriented ethics programs and employees’ unethical behavior. A total of 342 employees from various government and private organizations in Bangladesh participated in the study. The PLS-SEM results revealed that perceived vulnerability, perceived cost, and protection motivation intention have significant relationships with employees’ unethical behavior. However, perceived self-efficacy did not show a significant relationship with unethical behavior. The study also identified that cognitive appraisal (...)

    Understanding digital sweatshops: A qualitative investigation of workers’ perspectives.Manoj Kumar Kamila, Sahil Singh Jasrotia & Pooja Singh Kushwaha - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):435-459.
    Digital sweatshops represent exploitative digital workplaces where individuals are compelled to work long hours under high demands for minimal compensation. This study employs in-depth, semi-structured interviews with digital workers to explore digital sweatshop operations’ challenges and adverse aspects, mainly focusing on ethical considerations. The collected data were transcribed and analyzed using grounded theory methodology. The findings highlight three key themes: conditions mitigating factors, organisational factors, and work environment factors, all of which contribute to the persistence of digital sweatshops. The study (...)

    The dilemmas of minimum wages of RMG workers in Bangladesh in the age of globalisation and neoliberalism: a qualitative case review.Asm Anam Ullah - 2024 - Asian Journal of Business Ethics 13 (2):547-576.
    Since the 1980s, Western and European multinational corporations, notably clothing and fashion brands, have shifted their production to developing nations, particularly in the ready-made garments (RMG)-producing countries like Bangladesh. This shift, driven by the dominant economic and political doctrines of globalisation and neoliberalism, has led to the deliberate targeting of developing nations to exploit their abundant labour forces and strengthen global capitalism. The RMG industry in Bangladesh, a prime example, pays its workers meagre wages. However, it is the global brands, (...)
