Putovanja

pošalji prijatelju International Corporate Responsibility Mesto: Doha, Katar
Organizator: Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development, Carnegie Mellon University Trajanje: 16-18.11.2008.
Opšte informacije: The Qatar Foundation and the Carnegie Bosch Institute solicit papers for a conference on International Corporate Responsibility to be held in Doha, Qatar. The conference is based on the theme that responsible business decisions today must take a global view that is sensitive to political, economic and cultural differences. The number of participants is kept small, to encourage lively discussion.

Accepted papers are published in a proceedings book and presented (in summary form) by the authors in plenary
sessions. A diversity of views and countries of origin is sought in the selection process.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
- international codes of business conduct
- respecting cultural assumptions and practices
- defining and coping with corruption
- reconciling relationship-based practices with Western-style transparency
- marketing of harmful products
- substandard labor practices
- arms manufacture
- intellectual property
- gene prospecting
- environmental issues
- gender issues
- human rights issues
- the meaning and consequences of economic development
- the global AIDS epidemic and other health issues
- the role of the World Trade Organization and similar bodies
- impact of international business on local cultures
- instability of the global financial system
- Western domination of media and popular culture

Colleagues who do not wish to give a talk are also invited to attend. A registration fee will be assessed to cover
conference expenses. Details may be found at the web site below.
