Over the last four decades corporate social responsibility (CSR) has acquired distinctive organizational 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 -- provides a thorough overview of CSR as a practical phenomenon. Volume III: CSR in Global Context -- provides an integrated international perspective on CSR theory and practice.
