SUCCESS For today’s – and tomorrow’s – business leaders, a solid

understanding of the legal environment of business is

crucial. Students must be equipped with the knowledge of

basic legal concepts and the skills to apply these concepts

to real-world examples in order to succeed in business.

Anderson’s Business Law and the Legal Environment,

a time-tested market leading textbook, continues the

tradition of providing crystal clear explanations of the

law, student-friendly examples, and vivid illustrations.

Perhaps the most exciting innovation to the new edition

is not what students learn but how they learn – the

cutting-edge 22nd edition continues with its proven

features and approaches for teaching and learning that are

integrated into every facet of the text and package.

CONNECT for LEARNING

SUCCESS The learning system introduced in the 21st Edition of Anderson’s Business Law

and the Legal Environment, proved to be an effective tool for students to make the

connection to what they are reading, what they are doing in class, and—ultimately—

what they will do in the real world as business managers and leaders. This new tool is

continued and refined for the 22nd edition.

Chapters open with a self-guided outline—helping students focus on key concepts.

Chapter content continues to provide just the right amount of detail, presented in

terminology students can grasp and relate to. As a learning and study tool, key

examples are highlighted in green throughout each chapter—spotlighting the

connection between chapter concepts and real-world experiences for students.

The self-guided outlines help students

focus on the key concepts presented in

the chapter.

Examples are emphasized in every paragraph with green highlights – spotlighting the connection between legal concepts and real-world experiences for students.

2. The Notion of Universal Standards for Business Ethics Another view of ethics holds that standards exist universally and cannot be changed or modified by law. In many cases, universal standards stem from religious beliefs. In some countries today, the standards for business are still determined by religious tenets. Natural law imposes higher standards of behavior than those required by positive law and they must be followed even if those higher standards run contrary to codified law. For Example, in the early nineteenth century when slavery was legally permissible in the United States, a positive law standard supported slavery. However, slavery violates the natural law principle of individual freedom and would be unethical. Civil disobedience is the remedy natural law proponents use to change positive law.

Former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, who was second in her class at Stanford Law School (the late Chief Justice William Rehnquist was first), was offered a job as a receptionist for a law firm while her male classmates were hired as attorneys. At that time, no law prohibited discrimination against women, so law f h l l d d h l f

natural law– a system of principles to guide human conduct independent of, and sometimes contrary to, enacted law and discovered by man’s rational intelligence.

civil disobedience– the term used when natural law proponents violate positive law.

Editorial review has deemed that any suppressed content does not materially affect the overall learning experience.

Maximizing student success, the Make the Connection section found at the end of each chapter begins with a revised and more thorough chapter summary recapping key chapter topics. Action-oriented Learning Outcomes direct students to utilize the existing text pedagogy by serving as a direct reference point for selected For Example callouts, case summaries, and feature boxes. A list of Key Terms gives students further opportunity to check their understanding of commonly-used business law terminology. The Questions and Case Problems offer students additional opportunities for students to connect legal concepts to real-world issues. And the CPA Questions provide excellent review for the CPA Exam.

Make the Connection helps students understand and retain legal concepts by explaining them in the context of real-world examples. The result: Students are better prepared to have success in class—and in their careers as business leaders.

End-of-chapter material has been thoroughly revised and expanded! The cases, new “Thinging Things Through” examples, new ethics examples, and new “Sports and Entertainment Law” sections offer students up-to-date examples that help them understand the chapter concepts and laws covered.

MAKE THE CONNECTION

SUMMARY

Business ethics is the application of values and standards to business conduct and decisions. These values originate in various sources from positive (codified) law to natural law to ethical theories and standards and on to stakeholder values. Business ethics is important because trust is a critical component of good business relationships and free enterprise. A business with values will enjoy the additional competitive advantage of a good reputation and, over the long term, better earnings. When businesses make decisions that violate basic ethical standards, they set into motion social forces and cause the area of abuse to be regulated, resulting in additional costs and

restrictions for business. Voluntary value choices by businesses position them for a competitive advantage.

The categories of ethical values in business are truthfulness and integrity, promise keeping, loyalty and avoiding conflicts of interest, fairness, doing no harm, and maintaining confidentiality.

Resolution of ethical dilemmas is possible through the use of various models that require a businessperson to examine the impact of a decision before it is made. These models include stakeholder analysis, the Blanchard and Peale test, the front-page- of-the-newspaper test, and the Laura Nash model.
