Definitions and Relationships
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is the process by
which businesses negotiate their role in society
CSR is the way a corporation achieves a balance among its
economic, social, and environmental responsibilities in its
operations,
CSR is important because the business system is the
mechanism selected by society to produce and distribute
goods and services
CSR was to operate profitably, and the corporation could
not survive without profits, much less play a social role.

corporate citizenship

game.
 Organizations cannot be moral agents. Only individuals can serve as
moral agents.
 Public Responsibility
 Businesses should act in a way that is consistent with societys view of
responsible behavior, as well as with established laws and policies.
 Social Responsiveness

positive way.
 Organizations should develop an internal environment that encourages
and supports ethical behavior at an individual level.

Editor's Notes

  • #3: Companies can engage in CSR activities even while they are acting in unethical ways. For example, Enron was a champion of community involvement, but used off-balance-sheet partnerships to bilk investors and eventually ruin the company. Similarly Parmalat helped many Parma people and gave $2 million to restore the sixteenth-century Correggio frescoes at Parma Cathedral. But he diverted hundreds of millions from publicly held Parmalat to family owned companies like soccer team Parma AC and Parmatour. Companies can say one thing and do another.
  • #4: Bullet 1 from Fleming, John E. (2004). Corporate citizenship revisited. AOM Newsletter, 35(1): 4. A 2002 U.S. poll conducted by the Wall Street Journal/NBC showed public esteem for business leaders dropped following reports that companies like Enron, Andersen, and others. Fifty seven percent of respondents said corporate standards and values dropped in the past 20 years compared with 38% who said they were the same. This compares to 1998 when respondents reports were 5342%. They proportionately said government should regulate business, and that has occurred, for example Sarbanes-Oxley. From: Harwood, John. (2002, April 11). Publics esteem for business falls in wake of Enron scandal. WSJ, D5. Corporate scandals in Japan (former Mitsubishi Motors executive arrested on suspicion of professional negligence re: defective truck parts); Citibank turfed from Japan for irregularities. Corporate scandals also in Europe: ABB and Barnevik pay; hold kickbacks to suppliers; also make this a worldwide phenomenon.
