This book explains, compares and assesses the legal implications of Dieselgate within a range of selected jurisdictions and at the EU, international and comparative law level.The book analyses the US EPA-VW $14.7 billion dollar settlement of 2016, one of the largest civil settlements in the history of environmental law. As it shows, the Dieselgate affair has raised a host of issues concerning corporate and social responsibility, tort liability, environmental liability, contractual defective products, warranty, and false environmental claims in a range of jurisdictions. Issues like repurchasing or retrofitting cars from consumers and making direct payments to consumers through car buy-backs and compensation are analysed. Further, the book relates how Dieselgate has also contributed to the discussion about the introduction of more effective collective measures of redress for consumers, such as class actions, in Germany, France, Italy and the UK.The book subsequently reviews the criminal offences Volkswagen is currently confronted with in Germany, France and Italy, i.e. fraud and manipulation of capital markets (by belatedly providing shareholders with essential information relevant for the share value), and, potentially, environmental crimes. It demonstrates how Dieselgate has sparked new debates in Germany, Italy, France and the UK about the need to introduce enterprise liability for organised crimes, lack of compliance and control structures, and intentional violations of the law.Lastly, the book discusses how EU law has sought to respond to Dieselgate and thus investigates the controversial EU Regulation No. 2016/646 introducing a "temporary conformity factor" of 2.1 (equivalent to a 110% increase on the current limit) to be applied for NOx in the new RDE testing cycle, and the works of the EU committee of inquiry into Emissions Measurements in the Automotive Sector (EMIS).

Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Business Ethics, Corporate Ethics, grade: 1,3, , language: English, abstract: Since 2015 Volkswagen Group has been officially involved in an emission fraud scandal (Dieselgate) and its repairments, which led to be one of the most costly fraud cases in the history of the automotive industry. The self-imposed Dieselgate was an expression of poor work by VW with inadequate decisionmaking by management, unethical corporate governance, and a lack of a duty of responsibility. VW faced three allegations of misconduct. Intended air pollution, breaking the rules and cheating on emissions tests. Therefore, the Dieselgate is used to analyze and explain the assertion “Not doing something can require investments” by referring to the ethical compass (EC). The study is going stepwise to explain the meaning of the assertion by giving a rough understanding of the Dieselgate (Chapter 2), analyzing the Dieselgate with the help of the EC to answer the question whether VW postponed its investments into the future or not (Chapter 3), transferring the analysis results to the general to define the real meaning of the assertion (Chapter 4) and then giving a conclusion (Chapter 5).

Managing Business Ethics: Making Ethical Decisions teaches students how to navigate ethical issues they will encounter using the weight-of-reasons approach applied throughout the book. This decision-making framework’s goal is not to faithfully apply particular philosophical perspectives on what is right, but rather to solve ethical problems. The authors underscore the need for employees at all levels to carefully consider the ethical implications of their actions using this approach and it can be applied at the individual, organizational, and stakeholder levels. Chapters provide a case to walk through application of the framework and mini-cases allow students to practice applying this framework on their own. A wide range of real-world case studies are presented, featuring companies such as Facebook, Google, Wells Fargo, Volkswagen, and Amazon. This practical, down-to-earth text also delves into topics not covered extensively by other books such as slow and fast thinking, the inherent conflict between the individual and organization, conformity, and the difficulties of speaking truth to power. Students are offered ample opportunity to engage in thoughtful reflection, discussion, and application as they grapple with ethical issues big and small. Included with this title: The password-protected Instructor Resource Site (formally known as SAGE Edge) offers access to all text-specific resources, including a test bank and editable, chapter-specific PowerPoint® slides.

Amidst the lush green hills of rural Pennsylvania, engineer Rowan Klein felt right at home test driving Volkswagen's newest luxury SUV contender prepping for its North American launch. The Touareg's refined diesel purred satisfyingly below as they swooped along the rolling landscape. Mind lost admiring lush summer scenery, Rowan almost missed the test equipment's worrying sensor alerts popping up from the passenger seat alarming him. The scenic route returned sky-high exhaust readings suggesting emissions violating clean air standards nearly forty-fold over federal limits despite brochure promises. Heart sinking as a beloved brand's halo wavered, Rowan wondered how Volkswagen PR wizards spun such wildly divergent pollution realities from the nobler "clean diesel" fiction advertised? Little did he know the creeping discrepancies reflected a swelling corporate fraud soon detonating reputation carnage of historical proportions... This true-life drama captures the dramatic fall of Volkswagen, corporate sustainability icon turned scandalous poster child over its secret emissions deceptions. The German automaker's blind ambition and hubris fostered high stakes ethical compromises from the inception of its lean diesel engines. Attempting an impossible balancing act meeting tough new nitrogen oxide restrictions, exhausted engineers developed defeat devices to cheat tests while claiming breakout efficiency. Despite smoking gun warnings, bean-counting executives pushed ever harder deputizing more staff towards complicity rationalizing "the ends justify the means" but eroding Volkswagen's soul. Until the ugly truth surfaced no longer containable, igniting consumer ire and unprecedented global penalties threatening the company's collapse! This gripping narrative reconstructs the key decisions, intense boardroom pressures and callous disregard bringing a venerated industrial giant to its knees when storytelling replaced honest engineering. It serves as a potent corporate morality tale on dissolved ethics over slippery slopes nurturing scandal. Exploring essential questions around securing sustainability through principled innovation versus compromised incremental "progress" benefitting the few over the many, the drama offers harsh lessons about prioritizing advancement at any societal cost. Shining light where darkness still lingers over accountability and culture change years later, the book contextualizes Volkswagen's profound reputational jeopardy challenges reforming integrity lost steamrolling growth precipitously. Is reconciliation possible after broken trust breathes life into the proverb "What gain a man to lose his soul"?

This unique collection of contemporary international public relations (PR) case studies gives the reader in-depth insight into effective PR practice in a range of organizational contexts.

Addressing the gap in PR literature, it examines political systems, climate, media ownership and structures, as well as the social values and economic conditions which shape the role and work of PR practitioners. The book follows a four-part analytical model CDAO (Context, Decisions, Actions and Outcomes) to successfully identify the key points of comparison between cases to uncover how and why particular events occur and, critically, identifies what key factors and actions we can learn from in future decision-making. Featuring updated cases from across industries and around the world, including South East Asia, Latin America, the UK and the US, this book is an invaluable resource for researchers, postgraduate and executive education students studying public relations, corporate communication and public affairs.

The chapters collected in this book explore the place and role of judge-made private law in an emerging European polity. Examining case-law from the perspective of different theories and viewpoints, scholars and judges assess and reflect on the role of judges in civil cases for polity-building in Europe. The chapters thus present a kaleidoscopic view on the dynamics of private law adjudication against a European backdrop. The book aims to add a private legal perspective to existing discourses in European constitutional law on Europe's political constellation. It aspires to enrich two debates the first on the influence of fundamental rights in private legal relations, and the second on the constitutional dimension of European private law. The contributions are placed within a framework of five sub-categories or dimensions of judge-made European private law: politics of European private law adjudication, rights, remedies, representation and reflections of judges on specific cases.
