Though particularistic treatment of employees by leaders, i.e. leader favoritism, commonly occurs, it is conventionally regarded negatively as fairness norms require leaders to treat followers equally. In this conceptual study, we explore different views on leader favoritism based on different ethical principles. We develop an alternative to the conventional view and suggest that leader favoritism may not necessarily lead to negative outcomes when empathy-based favoritism is applied. In this vein, we recommend drawing on the ethical principles of a utilitarian approach by balancing particularism and universalism, which is also helpful to build organizational social capital. We contribute to leadership theory by developing an early concept of an integrative ethical approach to leader favoritism.","PeriodicalId":47954,"journal":{"name":"Business Ethics-A European Review","volume":"117 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2020-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79982121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Cross‐sector alliances in the global refugee crisis: An institutional theory approach","authors":"A. Yang, Wenlin Liu, Rong Wang","doi":"10.1111/beer.12288","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/beer.12288","url":null,"abstract":"According to the United Nations Refugee Agency (2017), there are over 40 million refugees worldwide. Although the refugee crisis in Europe captivated international attention in 2015, the crisis has evolved to become a global problem. Refugees currently living in Europe only account for 17% of the global refugee population, and the situation is much direr in regions such as Africa (30%), Middle East, and North Africa (26%). For millions of refugees, their forced displacement journeys may be fatal. Between 2015 and 2017, the annual refugee fatality rate kept reaching records (Missing Migrant Project, 2018). In 2016 alone, over 8,000 refugees died from drowning and vehicle accidents during migration. Even when refugees reach resettlement camps, many still struggle with access to basic living resources and face challenges such as language barriers, poverty, and cross-cultural adaptation (Douglas, Levitan, & Kiama, 2017). The scope and magnitude of the global refugee crisis are unprecedented. This crisis has posed severe challenges to social stability and sustainable development around the world. Yet, most governments are ill-prepared for this global humanitarian crisis, or their actions are mired by polarized domestic public opinions and nationalist movements. Cross-sector alliance is an effective way for societies to address wicked problems such as the global refugee crisis that spills over sectoral and national boundaries (Jamali, Yianni, & Abdallah, 2011; Selsky & Parker, 2005). These types of interorganizational relationships are also known as multi-stakeholder collaboratives, social alliances, cause-based partnerships, social service partnerships, and business-community partnerships (for an extensive review, see Koschmann, Kuhn, & Pfarrer, 2012). While many NGOs and intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) advocate on behalf of refugees, our initial assessment reveals considerable disparity when it comes to corporate participation in refugee relief efforts and their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives.

Pfisterer, R. van Tulder","doi":"10.1111/beer.12278","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/beer.12278","url":null,"abstract":"textabstractDrawing on a longitudinal case study of a 10-year cross-sector partnership for development in Colombia, this paper makes three contributions to current discussions on new collaborative governance approaches in which business, non-governmental organizations and development agencies jointly address development challenges. First, our study explores how partnerships can be successful in achieving longer term development while being designed as short-term governance arrangements. Second, we shed light on how power asymmetries can shape partnership governance. Many studies have highlighted the negative aspects of donor involvement in cross-sector partnerships. We identify, however, that an interplay of formal and informal governance in partnerships can provide a positive enabling framework for partner relationships to grow and mature. Third, the case highlights that the studied partnership employed governance mechanisms that facilitate local ownership and empower small-scale farmers, which effected (longer term) value chain relationships. In this regard, our case study helps to understand governance processes and conditions under which transformative local partnerships can emerge and sustain in post-conflict settings. The paper adds observations on the collaborative governance content that is required for a more integrative research approach to corporate contributions to development.","PeriodicalId":47954,"journal":{"name":"Business Ethics-A European Review","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2020-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81616361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The thesis of “doux commerce” and the social licence to operate framework","authors":"E. Borg","doi":"10.1111/beer.12279","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/beer.12279","url":null,"abstract":"The ‘doux commerce’ thesis holds that commerce acts as a civilising force, contributing to the advancement and well-being of societies by inculcating certain core moral values in individuals (such as honesty, tolerance and fair-dealing). This idea has a venerable history. However, I suggest that it faces a particular challenge in the current era in light of examples of systemic misbehaviour by global companies. This paper explores the nature of this challenge, taking the events around the financial crisis of 2007-8 as a case study, and suggests that if we are to preserve the idea that commerce contributes to the common good then greater mechanisms of constraint on the worst excesses of business behaviour will be needed. In particular, I argue that we must recognise the need for all firms to have a social purpose and suggest that the ‘social licence to operate’ framework, familiar from the mining and extraction sectors, could be used to provide crucial leverage on the behaviour of multinational firms.","PeriodicalId":47954,"journal":{"name":"Business Ethics-A European Review","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2020-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85704110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
