Abstract: Most pieces of literature indicate that family businesses are not as socially responsible as non-family firms are. This is prevalent in the existing literature review around family involvement on a business's CSR. This study aims to describe a critical review and shed the light about business ethics and organisational culture in family and non-family firms. By introducing the role-modelling, ethics through the reward and punishment systems, this study describe candid communication, organisational culture and morality. However, religious practices and organisational values such as integrity, respect and empathy are introduced. Finally, this study concludes by summing-up this review in link with the corporate social responsibility and ethics in family and non-family businesses.
