Understanding the Separation Thesis: Precision after the Decimal Point?: A Response to Joakim Sandberg
回应Sandberg对Freeman分离论题九种解读的精确梳理,质疑将其他学科术语引入规范商业伦理学的做法是否恰当,并指出这种精确性可能为时过早或多余。
Sandberg documents with admirable precision nine rather diverging renderings of Freeman’s call for the rejection of the separation thesis (ST). A more careful consideration of the propriety of importing phrases such as “the rejection of ST” from more established academic disciplines so as to serve in the field of normative business ethics would seem to make that precision premature and maybe even superfluous. This may well be generalized to an observation concerning current working methods in normative business ethics.
