| Synopsis: |
The financial crisis of 2008 has led to a re-evaluation of the roleof financial institutions and their relationship with the widereconomy and society. This process has meant an increasedquestioning of both the conduct of business itself and theprinciples behind commercial and financial activities. Yet non-westernvoices have been notably absent from this debate, ashave alternatives to the dominant western-derived economicideologies. From the ancient spiritual wisdom or Dharma ofthe Jains, there emerges a practical modern philosophy fully intune with the re-emergence of India as a global economicpower. Jain individuals, businesses and charities have played apowerful role in India's rise and within the global IndianDiaspora. Jain communities are noted everywhere for theircontributions to business, the professions and science. Thesesuccesses are based on the principles of interdependence andco-operation, with an emphasis on long-term consolidationrather than short-term bursts of growth. Researchers andstudents interested in the ethics of finance, accounting andeconomics will find Jainism and Ethical Finance a scholarly andilluminating evaluation of Jain Dharma as a non-western casestudy. In the light of current concerns about the way globalfinance and banking systems operate, this book offers a timelyalternative perspective.. |
