Launch Erasmus Centre of Behavioural Ethics

As of March 18, the <link erim research centres behavioural_ethics _blank>Erasmus Centre of Behavioural Ethics has been launched. The Erasmus Centre of Behavioural Ethics (ECBE) fosters and promotes fundamental (social) psychological research in behavioural ethics that has implications for a wide variety of fields such as management, law, and social sciences in general.

The centre aims to address questions related to understanding how, for example, it is possible that good people can show bad behaviours, how concerns about justice and morality influence people's decisions within dyads and groups, which motives underlie ethical leadership, and how distrust can be decreased when ethical failures have emerged. The ECBE is chaired by David De Cremer and is part of a network of academics in the field of behavioural ethics.

<link erim research centres behavioural_ethics people david_de_cremer _blank>David De Cremer is Professor of Behavioral Business Ethics at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University, in the Netherlands, Scientific director of the Erasmus Centre of Behavioural Ethics, and a young fellow of the Dutch Academy of Science (KNAW). His research focuses on understanding why people value morality and justice and how these concerns affect leadership effectiveness, social and economic decision making, trust repair, and the emergence of both antisocial and prosocial behaviour.
