| Abstract / Description | This three volume collection provides students and researchers with the historically most important of the classic articles in CSR, as well as the best of the contemporary and trendsetting work in this burgeoning area. The collection will serve as a sourcebook for academics and researchers entering or already established in the area of CSR. The editors bring together a breadth of articles across CSR, with an orientation that is diverse as well as international. The three volumes are well organized to focus on the main topics in business ethics and are divided into 'Theories and Concepts of CSR', 'Managing and Implementing CSR', and 'CSR in Global Context'. Courses and research programs in CSR have multiplied in recent years alongside a growing concern with responsible practices of business.
This multi-volume work provides a focused and well-balanced reference for academics and their students to acquire a thorough understanding of this now central topic. Over the last four decades Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has acquired distinctive organisational status and become the subject of an increasing number of social and environmental policies. This development has been reflected by an outpouring of literature that focuses on CSR and constitutes a distinct area of business education and research. This Major Work carefully and constructively brings together seminal articles to provide a comprehensive overview of the burgeoning, interdisciplinary, and international scholarly writing in the field. Papers will cover the following areas: Volume I: Theories and Concepts of CSR -- providing a comprehensive grounding in the conceptual and normative CSR literature Volume II: Managing and Implementing CSR -- providing a thorough overview of CSR as a practical phenomenon Volume III: CSR in Global Context -- providing an integrated international perspective on CSR theory and practice. |
