Should the ethical standards and norms vary with the

economic and social conditions and across geographies?

★ Ethics is a subjective term which is tied to the legislature of the geography
★ Ethics is firmly linked to the culture and history of various socio-economic
groups
★ Equity vs equality: Economy and social status
★ Motto of the state and UC were very different from what they claim
★ Union Carbide should have been considerate of the employees and other
citizens staying nearby
★ The Government of India should have held its citizens’ interest its utmost
priority
★ ‘Morally responsible’ compensation wasn’t enough. Very subjective.
★ Penalties imposed on the misdeeds were different in US and India
