About the journal
The Journal of Business Ethics publishes original articles from a wide variety of methodological and disciplinary perspectives concerning ethical issues related to business. Since its initiation in 1980, the editors have encouraged the broadest possible scope. The term `business' is understood in a wide sense to include all systems involved in the exchange of goods and services, while `ethics' is circumscribed as all human action aimed at securing a good life. Systems of production, consumption, marketing, advertising, social and economic accounting, labour relations, public relations and organisational behaviour are analysed from a moral viewpoint. The style and level of dialogue involve all who are interested in business ethics - the business community, universities, government agencies and consumer groups.
Speculative philosophy as well as reports of empirical research are welcomed. In order to promote a dialogue between the various interested groups as much as possible, papers are presented in a style relatively free of specialist jargon.

Submission in LaTex
For submission in LaTeX, Springer has developed special LaTeX style files, KLUWER.STY (LaTeX 2.09) and KLUWER.CLS (LaTeX 2 ), which are used for all Kluwer journals, irrespective of the publication's size or layout. The specific journal formatting is done later during the production process. KLUWER.STY and KLUWER.CLS are offered by a number of servers around the world. Unfortunately, these copies are often unauthorised and authors are strongly advised not to use them. Springer can only guarantee the integrity of style files obtained directly from them. Authors can obtain KLUWER.STY and KLUWER.CLS and the accompanying instruction file KAPINS.TEX at the following website: http://www.springeronline.com/authors/jrnlstylefiles Technical support on the usage of the style files is given via the e−mail address: texhelp@springer−sbm.com
Reviewing Procedure
The Journal of Business Ethics follows a double−blind reviewing procedure. Authors are therefore requested not to put their name(s) in the manuscript. Self−identifying citations and references in the article text should either be avoided or left blank when manuscripts are first submitted. Authors are responsible for reinserting self−identifying citations and references when manuscripts are prepared for final submission.
Manuscript Presentation
The journal¡¯s language is English. British English or American English spelling and terminology may be used, but either one should be followed consistently throughout the article. Please double−space all material, including notes and references. Quotations of more than 40 words should be set off clearly, either by indenting the left−hand margin or by using a smaller typeface. Use double quotation marks for direct quotations and single quotation marks for quotations within quotations and forwords or phrases used in a special sense. Number the pages consecutively with the first page containing: − running head (shortened title) − article type (if applicable) − title
Abstract
Please provide a short abstract of 100 to 250 words. The abstract should not contain any undefined abbreviations or unspecified references.
Key Words
Please provide 5 to 10 key words or short phrases in alphabetical order.
Abbreviations
Abbreviations and their explanations should be collected in a list.
Figures and Tables
Lines should not be thinner than 0.25pts and in−fill patterns and screens should have a density of at least 10 percent. For bitmap graphics, TIFF is the preferred format. The following resolutions are optimal: black−and−white line figures − 1200 dpi; line figures with some gray or coloured lines − 600 dpi; photographs − 300 dpi; screen dumps − leave as is. The letter size of any text in the figures must be large enough to allow for reduction. If a figure contains colour, make absolutely clear whether it should be printed in black−and−white or in colour. Figures that are to be printed in black−and−white should not be submitted in colour. Authors will be charged for reproducing figures in colour. Each figure and table should be numbered and mentioned in the text. The approximate position of figures and tables should be indicated in the margin of the manuscript. Figures and tables should be placed at the end of the manuscript following the Reference section. Each figure and table should be accompanied by an explanatory legend. The figure legends should be grouped and placed on a separate page. In tables, footnotes are preferable to long explanatory material in either the heading or body of the table. Such explanatory footnotes, identified by superscript letters, should be placed immediately below the table.
Section Headings
First−, second−, third−, and fourth−order headings should be clearly distinguishable.
Appendices
Supplementary material should be collected in an Appendix and placed before the Notes and Reference sections.
Notes
Please use endnotes only. Notes should be indicated by consecutive superscript numbers in the text and listed at the end of the article before the References. A source reference note should be indicated by an asterisk after the title. This note should be placed at the bottom of the first page.
Cross−Referencing
In the text, a reference identified by means of an author's name should be followed by the date of the reference in parentheses and page number(s) where appropriate. When there are more than two authors, only the first author's name should be mentioned, followed by et al. In the event that an author cited has had two or more works published during the same year, the reference, both in the text and in the reference list, should be identified by a lower case letter like a and b; after the date to distinguish the works. Examples: Winograd (1986, p. 204) (Winograd, 1986a, 1986b) (Flores et al., 1988; Winograd, 1986) (Bullen and Bennett, 1990) Acknowledgements
Acknowledgements of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the References.

References to books, journal articles, articles in collections and conference or workshop proceedings, and technical reports should be listed at the end of the paper in alphabetical order. Articles in preparation or articles submitted for publication, unpublished observations, personal communications, etc. should not be included in the reference list but should only be mentioned in the article text (e.g., T. Moore, personal communication). References to books should include the author's name; year of publication; title; page numbers where appropriate; publisher; place of publication, in the order given in the example below.

Springer Open Choice
In addition to the normal publication process (whereby an article is submitted to the journal and access to that article is granted to customers who have purchased a subscription), Springer now provides an alternative publishing option: Springer Open Choice. A Springer Open Choice article receives all the benefits of a regular subscription based article, but in addition is made available publicly through Springer's online platform SpringerLink.
