Christian Social Ethics in a Global Era: (Abingdon Press Studies in Christian Ethics and Economic Life Series) by Max L. Stackhouse
Some of this is still relevant in 2026, though much is understandably dated.
On Moral Business: Classical and Contemporary Resources for Ethics in Economic Life by Max L. Stackhouse
A similar volume to Lammers & Verhey on medical ethics but devoted to selections relating to economic and business ethics
Interesting material here.
