|תקציר הקורס: | |

| |This course will introduce the students to what seems to be a conflict – between values on the one hand |

| |creation and proper conduct on the other. Ethical considerations, while always important, have recently been |

| |promoted to the forefront of public discourse. The demand for social justice, fairer pricing of staples and |

| |services and more just civic load-sharing are just recent examples of ethical and moral issues that influence|

| |businesses. In this course the students will face these questions, learn how to approach them and they will |

| |also acquire a toolkit with practical information to apply in the workplace in similar circumstances. |
