Abstract

Compliance und Integrity in der Wirtschaftsethik gelten als zwei Ansaetze einer verantwortlichen Unternehmenssteuerung. Compliance wird dabei haeufig als eine regel- bzw. normenbasierte Strategie ausgewiesen, wohingegen Integrity als ein werteorientierter Ansatz verstanden wird. Gegenstand des Artikels ist die Frage, inwieweit aus einem Abgleich von Compliance- und Integrity-Strategien mit einer philosophischen Normen- und Werte-Unterscheidung Erkenntnisse fuer die Beziehung beider Unternehmensstrategien gewonnen werden koennen. Die konzeptionelle Analyse wird dabei Einsicht in ein sich ergaenzendes Verhaeltnis erlauben und zugleich Grenzen beider Ansaetze aufzeigen. (In business ethics Compliance and Integrity approaches are considered as two strategies of responsible organizational management. While Compliance has characteristics of a rule- or norm-based strategy, Integrity seems to resemble a value-based strategy. This paper discusses the questions to which extent the difference between Compliance and Integrity drawn along the lines of the philosophical distinction between norms and values can help to clarify the relation of the respective accounts of business ethics. The conceptual analysis will shed light on their complementary nature and at the same time reveal some limits of both approaches.)
