A Handbook of Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility: Corporate Social Responsibility

Autor Güler Aras Editat de David Crowther
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iun 2024
The current economic situation has highlighted deficiencies in corporate governance while also showing the importance of stakeholder relations. It has also raised the profile of the debates regarding corporate social responsibility and shown the inter-relationship with governance. And the two together are essential for sustainable business. The social and environmental contexts of business are generally considered to be as significant as the economic and financial contexts and good governance will address all of these aspects. The combination of these aspects offers long term benefits for a firm, such as reducing risk and attracting new investors, shareholders and more equity as well as sustainable performance. Written by experts from all over the world, A Handbook of Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility is the most authoritative single-volume guide to the relationship between good governance and social responsibility and the reality of managing both. In addition to the theory and practice of governance and CSR, the book includes case studies from large and small organizations and NGOs to highlight examples of good and bad practice, and to show international and cultural similarities and differences while at the same time furthering the debate regarding the relationship between good governance and social responsibility.

Recenzii

'Today's two most important business policy questions - corporate social responsibility and corporate governance impact each other in both direct and subtle ways. This collection rejects the conventional idea that these are separate topics and explores their points of contact, linkages, and their points of divergence. The book's broad and deep collection of ideas from around the world offer a complete, subtle and textured view of this critical intersection. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the modern business enterprise.' Kurt A. Strasser, University of Connecticut Law School, USA 'The governance and responsibilities of corporations are two of the major themes of recent years. Aras and Crowther have brought together a rich and varied set of contributions on these important topics. Those new to the field will find many of the key issues addressed, while those familiar with the existing literature will likewise find much of value.' Christopher J Cowton, University of Huddersfield Business School, UK
