This topical and much needed book constitutes an important part of the debate on the integrity in an academic context as a sine qua non of responsible management education. The last decade, which might be called an epoch of moral catastrophes, sets for universities the stage for effectively performing their missions through conscious and consequent incorporating the core values of university into academic activities. This book discusses with stimulating examples how universities should bring alive their core values constituting academic ethos. Using case studies and examples from universities from all over the world, this book offers what few other titles are able to offer: conceptual framework of academic integrity based on Positive Academic Ethos, a new, holistic approach involving developing academic integrity based on human fulfillment and development of man's virtuous nature as well as practical advice and guidance, explaining in detail how administrators and educators should discover, articulate, and institutionalize core values of academic ethos into daily academic activities and create a foundation for academy integrity. The universities, educators, and instructors committed to socially responsible management education will find many valuable tools and pragmatic strategies to effectively spread practices of integrity based on academic ethos core values across organizational institutions. It also provides valuable teaching case studies and should be used by course leaders at undergraduate, master's, and MBA level in all business schools.
