“…People develop their own complex set of ethical, as well as unethical, dispositions as a result of encounters and actions, of reflections on their effects and on responses from others (p. 952). Social interaction has a spatial dimension, implicitly understood in terms of physical distance and separation, and repeated interaction affects the rise of morality (Chiotis ).…”

“…From these experiences, we learn that geographical proximity and everyday interaction affect how a relationship develops, and the repeated interaction (Chiotis ) with workers leads to a change in attitudes. The personal relationship is more important than the structure of the labour market.…”

“…Assistance may also be called for when health care is necessary or family problems arise. Repeated interaction will affect the rise of morality (Chiotis ) and care is a spatial activity resulting from interaction and geographical proximity (Morgan ). All these examples illustrate how someone who initially seemed to be socially remote (Morgan ) moves closer because of geographical proximity and working together.…”

“…To understand the employer‐employee relationships, we need concepts that acknowledge how normative judgements infuse everyday life (Sayer ). When people interact and meet repeatedly in specific places, caring practices develop and give rise to morality (Chiotis ). The research questions will thus be answered by leaning towards a theoretical framework including aspects of care and a moral economy.…”

With Swedish agriculture as its point of departure, this paper seeks to explore farmers' recruiting practices and employer-employee relationships. Taking on the employer's role means becoming subject both to formal statutory obligations and to regulations on wages, security and other aspects of working conditions. This article focuses on the more informal aspects of acting as an employer. The results show that recruiting, interacting and engaging with employees involve multiple responsibilities towards individuals and society alike. The practices of care identified are thus both private and public in nature, and exist within a framework of norms and ethical principles, a 'moral economy'. The farmers' strategies and decisions are understood as merged into negotiations regarding their identity, tradition, role in society and position in a global industry. Caring practices are embedded in farming practices and the focus on recruitment and employers' experience adds to a multifaceted understanding of caring practices in which male farmers' caring practices, too, become visible.

“…A typical example would be a request for cash payment to avoid paying taxes. The prevalence of EBD (Sutter et al, 2013) suggests that, collectively, this behavior could lead to serious economic damage (Karstedt and Farrell, 2006), which posits a threat to the moral standards of an economy that emphasize fair values and perceived equality in transaction mechanisms and their institutionalization (Chiotis, 2015;Sandberg, 2015).…”

Despite its prevalence in emerging economies, everyday-life business deviance (EBD) and its antecedents have received surprisingly little research attention.Drawing on strain theory and the business-ethics literature, we develop a socio-psychological explanation for this deviance. Our analysis of 741 owners of Chinese small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) suggests that materialism and trust in institutional justice affect EBD both directly and indirectly in a relationship mediated by the ethical standards of SME owners. These findings have important implications for researching deviant business behavior within SMEs.
