Description:...

Building on a comprehensive approach to the concept of sustainable development, the interdisciplinary project group "Ethical-Ecological Rating" has developed a scientifically based criteriology for ethical assessment of enterprises and capital investment, the "Frankfurt-Hohenheim-Guidelines." With these guidelines, business activities can be evaluated for their positive or negative contribution to environmental, social, and cultural sustainable development.

Lucia A. Reisch teaches economics and business administration at the University of Stuttgart-Hohenheim.
