FRONT BURNER:
…an open, unending conversation.
C o r p o r a t e S o c i a l
Responsibility (CSR)
remains a vague concept
that struggles to define
itself beyond the confines
o f c o r p o r a t e
p h i l a n t h r o p y o r
sustainability.
This book contributes to
the theorization of CSR
b y p r e s e n t i n g t h e
meaning of CSR in a clear
and distinct manner, giving the ongoing CSR debate a
new direction anchored on a firm economic
philosophy.
It reinforces the view of firms as social
institutions as well as economic actors, establishing
CSR as a form of justice rather than philanthropy.
Articulating CSR as private governance of corporate
externalities, for the first time, this book provides
researchers with a new paradigm to translate
knowledge into action and offers reflective managers
an alternative framework in which to explore their
corporatestrategiesanddecisions.
