| Abstract: | IS-related ethical quandaries are receiving an increasing amount of attention. However, link-ages to the normative theories of business ethics, which can be used in resolving these quandaries in the corporate domain, have been lacking. This paper enumerates and explains the three major normative theories. The stockholder theory holds that managers should resolve ethical quandaries by taking actions which increase the long-term profits to the stockholders without violating the law or engaging in fraud or deception. |
