    Abstract

    This chapter introduces business ethics as a subdiscipline of ethics. Ethics concerns human (inter)action insofar as it relates to what is desirable or required from a fundamental perspective. Business ethics is the subdiscipline that deals with all issues of business that are directly or indirectly related to human actions, interactions or the consequences thereof. The chapter explains what business ethics is about by contextualizing it within the discipline philosophy. The latter is defined as thinking about thinking.
