This book highlights the relevance of the grand traditions of the humanities as an untapped resource for business-world problems. In a time where the humanities are viewed as in decline or in threat of collapse altogether, this book enacts and extends the best of the humanities toward prevailing challenges within the complex realities of our current cultural moment. The book presents how the humanities can contribute to humanizing business and management. It explores and discusses various ways to integrate the views and approaches of the humanities in business and management research, practice, and education responding to the unprecedented challenges of the Anthropocene. The relations between humanities and social sciences is also discussed, as models and theories of business and management are based on insights of social sciences. The book is an outcome of the "Humanities for Business" project of Princeton University Faith and Work Initiative, the European SPES Institute, Leuven, and the Business Ethics Center of Corvinus University of Budapest. It is of great value to researchers, students, policy makers and research institutions interested in using humanities for renewing and humanizing business and management.
本書強調人文學科的偉大傳統作為解決商業世界問題的未開發資源的重要性。在當前人文學科被視為衰退或面臨崩潰威脅的時期，本書實踐並延伸人文學科的精華，以應對當前文化時刻中的各種挑戰。本書展示了人文學科如何能夠促進商業和管理的人性化。它探討並討論了在商業和管理研究、實踐及教育中整合人文學科觀點和方法的各種方式，以回應人類世所帶來的前所未有的挑戰。本書還討論了人文學科與社會科學之間的關係，因為商業和管理的模型與理論是基於社會科學的見解。本書是普林斯頓大學信仰與工作倡議、歐洲SPES研究所（Leuven）以及布達佩斯科爾維努斯大學商業倫理中心的「人文學科與商業」項目的成果。對於希望利用人文學科來更新和人性化商業與管理的研究者、學生、政策制定者和研究機構而言，本書具有重要價值。
