Assignment: Business Ethics: Contracts with Foreign Businesses
Currently, limited international laws exist in areas such as copyright/patent protection and confidentiality of information. Labor and environmental laws may vary significantly between the United States and many developing countries. In addition, although all countries have laws against bribery, there are some countries where corruption is quite common.

Please address the following in your response:
In reflecting on the limited international laws and regulations and the differences between the U.S. and other countries, briefly discuss some guidelines (principles and concepts) that you would have in your code of conduct (ethical/social responsibility policies).
