Following a brief introduction of the historic development and current understanding of ethics in (Western) society and an overview of involved institutions, the seminar deals with current trends and tendencies. Sustainable marketing management includes corporate social responsibility (CSR), corporate cultural responsibility and ecological areas (example green event) and engagement with consumer ethics. Against the background of the globalization of markets and demographic restructuring of worldwide societies, transcultural and multicultural correlations play an important role for sustainable and ethically oriented marketing. The seminar especially focuses on the international model formation of ethics in marketing and role models for responsible present-day and future companies. Furthermore, effects of the technological transformation on the relationship between family and university are discussed.
