RESUMO

This research has aimed to study the ethical patterns that guide the managers or owners of advertising agencies in Brazil and in other forty-two countries. Their knowledge or affinity to the concepts of ethics may indicate the degree of responsibility that they assume when dealing with the communication over products, services and ideas, in all of the different markets throughout the world. The comparative analysis of the opinions gathered in the research, in relation to several ethics parameters, has led to the observation that the codes of ethics do not seem to be sufficient to inform an advertising professional with respect to all of the situations and issues he deals with. A more profound knowledge of Ethics fundamental principles over nature and commercial life becomes mandatory, in order to reduce the uncertainties in a moral decision making process. Besides the questionnaires sent to professionals, data related to ads in national and foreign magazines were gathered in several institutions. The monitoring of ads in radio, television and outdoors allowed the evaluation of ongoing ethical parameters in Brazil as far as these communication means.
