Abstract
While ‘culture’ is an omnipresent notion in management, economics, and business ethics, it is often used in the sense of “climate” (Denison 1996). In this contribution, we approach culture in a different manner while emphasizing a methodological cultural perspective. We will first outline a general cultural approach in a Weberian tradition that focuses on five crucial levels of analysis: elements of a theory of action, social relations, institutions, organizations, and system theories. Based on that, we will sketch selected considerations by identifying elements of organizational ethics, business and society relations, and societal systems perspectives. This will allow us to outline a broad spectrum of conceptual considerations by introducing concepts such as moral (bounded) rationality, multi-rational and poly-lingual organizations, the ethics of organizational fields, and systemic responsibility. Finally, we sketch some directions for further research, which not only concerns social-science approaches but also offers some suggestions for bridging our approach with normative business ethics.
Zusammenfassung
Obwohl der Begriff „Kultur“ in den Wirtschaftswissenschaften und ebenso in der Wirtschaftsethik allgegenwärtig ist, wird er häufig im Sinne von „Klima“ verwendet (Denison 1996). In diesem Beitrag nähern wir uns kulturellen Fragen auf eine andere Art, nämlich über eine kulturtheoretische Herangehensweise. Zum Zweck der Untersuchung werden wir zunächst einen allgemeinen kulturwissenschaftlichen Ansatz in der Tradition von Max Weber skizzieren, aus dem sich ein Mehrebenenmodell entwickeln lässt, bestehend aus: einer Handlungstheorie, sozialen Beziehungen, Institutionen, Organisationen und Systemtheorien. Darauf aufbauend werden wir Elemente einer Organisationsethik, der Beziehungen zwischen Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft sowie der gesellschaftlich-systemischen Perspektive herausarbeiten. Dies ermöglicht es uns, ein breites Spektrum an konzeptionellen Überlegungen anzustellen, u. a. zu den Themen: (begrenzter) moralischer Rationalität, multirationale und poly-linguale Organisationen, einer Ethik Organisationsfelder sowie Fragen systemische Verantwortung. Abschließend skizzieren wir einige Richtungen für die weitere Forschung, die nicht nur sozialwissenschaftliche Ansätze betreffen, sondern auch Vorschläge für einen Brückenschlag zwischen dem hier diskutierten Ansatz und Fragen einer normativen (Wirtschafts-)Ethik formulieren.
