Description
Summary:I argue for the inadequacy of the Kantian approach to the analysis of personal relations in business presented by Moberg and Meyer, in “A Deontological Analysis of Peer Relations in Organizations” (Journal of Business Ethics). It is unclear or implausible that the (mostly reasonable) principles of business relations they advocate really do follow from Kant's theory. Kant's theory, and deontological theories in general, do not yield reasonable principles of personal relations, particularly in the business context.
