Abstract
We have experienced the reality of globalization, both in its positive and negative attributes. A global future is unavoidable. From examples drawn from the trade in services, I suggest that we need a global ethic to deal with the ethical problems faced by modern business. Further, I suggest that we work towards developing such a global ethic by drawing on the experiences of East and West to find the best practice. Underpinning such a global ethic must be spiritualities which have one common factor: a global vision which is wide enough to include all people and their issues and their hopes. This requires leadership in business beyond simply local issues. Keywords: global ethics, professional ethics, lawyer’s ethics, best practice
