ETHICS AND VALUE CREATION IN BUSINESS RESEARCH – COMPARING TWO APPROACHES

Authors: Jan-Åke Törnroos; Lise-Lotte Lindfelt

This conceptual paper focuses on ethics and its role in creating value in inter-firm cooperation.Up until now, ethical issues have been mainly associated with the Stakeholder research approach. We claim, however, that it can also be used when adopting a business network approach. A conceptual overview is made of value creation and ethics. The paperalso makes a comparative analysis of the two different research approaches, i.e the stakeholder and business network perspective, for ethical issues and value creation.
