Summary

Abstract ethical theory should be added to business ethics curricula, which currently only include specific cases and principles. This is because the current approach offers no framework to help students understand those specific principles.

Notable Assumptions

The argument establishes that business ethics curricula lack a framework to understand specific principles, and then jumps to the conclusion that abstract ethical theory should be added in. This indicates an assumption that abstract ethical theory will resolve the issue by providing an appropriate framework.

We need to affirm this assumption that adding abstract ethical theory to business curricula will better enable students to understand specific principles.
