Abstrakty
From a Smithian point of view, it can be argued that managing a good business presupposes a just legal-political framework. The point is that managing a business ethically or morally requires not only morals itself, but also just laws and a just administration of these laws that supports good management. Practices such as monopoly, collusion, nepotism and bribery ensure that it is hardly possible to expect people to conduct business ethically in such a situation. When there are no laws prohibiting such practices, or when laws prohibiting them are not taken seriously, good management is out of the question. When nearly everyone can conduct business by means of monopoly, manipulation and bribery without being prosecuted by the government, no one else will take seriously the requirement of doing business ethically.
