Abstract

Over the last decades, it has become obvious that no extensive and perspective development of economics is possible without due consideration of moral. This study explores attitudes towards the value of honesty of masters level students at the University`s in Latvia, specializing in business administration. The basis of the research of masters level students is value orientation survey, elaborated within the European project WACRA. The results of this study indicate that the masters level students consider,that honesty to be of utmost importance in their work. Given the complicated nature of the concept of honesty additional studies are needed to sort out what exactly is their understanding of honest behavior in business. Given the current situation in Latvia, it is of some interest to note that these future leaders underscore the necessity of legal regulation of the economy by the state.
