Abstract: In the past twenty years, as former Soviet-bloc countries have developed economically, business education has risen accordingly. While traditional business courses, e.g., accounting, finance and marketing, are prominent in schools there, business ethics, is less prevalent. This paper examines the environmental and cultural conditions of the region to present the challenges business schools in the region have in providing Business Ethics education.
