Resarch Proposal

Recently, Japanese food industries are losing consumer’s trust because of their mislabeling scandals which came from the ignorance of primitive moral and ethics. Although food is really closely related with all people’s lives and health, food information on which we, consumers can depend is only a label of the package. That means food corporations should be honest and trustworthy. To begin with, the understanding of moral and corporation ethics is important for preventing from other dishonest acts of corporations or organization. Then the solutions for it might be found. These are mainly social sanctions and education. Booth, Wayne C. "The company we keep" University of California Press, 1988. New York Times (1857-Current file). New York, N.Y.: Jun 1, 2002. pg. A5, 1 pgs. Can ethics be taught? Harvard Business School Pr (1993/03). These sources seem to useful in my research.
