| Abstract: | This paper compares a number of ethical management practices of firms in two different economies. The recent behavior of firms, described in terms of industry, size, international involvement and ownership, in a developed western economy are contrasted with the behavior of similar firms in an en emerging, eastern economy. This paper extends an earlier empirical study by Batten, Hettihewa and Mellor on the relationship between key firm-specific variables and firm ethical management practices in Australia by drawing on similar survey data from Sri Lanka to facilitate an international comparison. |
