**Business schools, the media, the corporate sector, governments, and non-governmental
organisations have all begun to pay more attention to issues of Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) in recent years. **

These issues encompass broad questions about the changing relationship between business,
society and government, environmental issues, corporate governance, the social and
ethical dimensions of management, globalisation, stakeholder debates, shareholder
and consumer activism, changing political systems and values, and the ways in which
corporations can respond to new social imperatives.

This Oxford Handbook is an authoritative review of the academic research that has
both prompted, and responded to, these issues. Bringing together leading experts
in the area, it provides clear thinking and new perspectives on CSR and the debates
around it. The Handbook is divided into seven key sections:

* Introduction

* Perspectives on CSR

* Critiques of CSR

* Actors and Drivers

* Managing CSR

* CSR in Global Context

* Future Perspectives and Conclusions.
Published in the Oxford Handbooks in Business
and Management series.
