An Eastern Approach to the Global Challenge of Corruptibility
Abstract
This chapter analyzes the notion of corruptibility and its relation to recent high profile cases of corporate corruption and the development of corporate codes of conduct. It proceeds to develop a foundation for corporate ethical codes based on a model derived from the model of Indian Vedic philosophy and psychology. An Eastern psychology of ethics is captured in certain depictions from the Bhagavad-Gita such as balanced in success and failure, independent of possessions, and steady intellect. From the perspective of developmental psychology, these attributes are more than normative ideals; they are actual depictions of an advantaged stage of development that is realizable through appropriate technologies of consciousness. In conclusion, it will present a theoretical depiction of an advanced stage of psychological maturity which may naturally facilitate resistance of temptation and action for the common good. Moral development, particularly advanced development toward the higher states of consciousness depicted in Eastern psychology, addresses the challenge of corruptibility. As more and more individuals bring this level of self realization into the global marketplace, we predict that we shall see the global enterprises enact win/win business strategies which build economic value for the firm while helping to solve social and environmental problem
