Abstract
This chapter describes, applies and evaluates social anarchism's ethical critique of business practice and business ethics, using Milton Friedman's 'The Social Responsibility of Business to Increase Its Profits' as a focus of criticism. In developing this antagonistic inquiry into corporocentric principles and methods of production, alternatives are identified and assessed, including those which claim to include an anarchist ethos in their corporate practices. This chapter is an extensively revised version of an article called 'Anarchism and Business Ethics', published in "Ephemera' 14.4 (2014): 699-724.
