This reminded me Hans Kung's project for a world ethics, which can be
found at the address: <http://astro.temple.edu/~dialogue/geth.htm>. In
that location can be found the main directives for the project, including
its application to business.

I believe the ethical problem is inseparable from learning, because
learning depends on human transformation and ethics is the basis for human
transformation.
