Norman Bowie, A Kantian Approach To Business Ethics - Respect For Persons And Meaningful Work

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century philosopher Norman Bowie's article "A Kantian Approach To Business Ethics"

It focuses specifically on his discussions of how Immanuel Kant's categorical imperative would apply in Business Ethics situations and contexts. In this case, the second formulation, which has to do with respect for persons, has implications for "meaningful work".
