Abstract

This chapter is extracted and adapted from “Global strategy and ethics: managing human systems and advancing humane ideals,” Business Ethics Quarterly,2006. That paper reviewed and constructively critiqued Milan Zeleny's recent book: “Human Systems Management: Integrating Knowledge, Management and Systems,” World Scientific Publishing, Singapore, 2005. In the critique, two variants of capitalism are described: Human Systems Management (HSM) and Humane Ideals Management (HIM). They are compared with Financial-Market-Capitalism (i.e. the Anglo-US variant, or business-as-usual). HSM and HIM both embody distinctive ways of thinking about the relationship between business strategy and ethics.
