A chapter in Opportunities and Pitfalls of Corporate Social Responsibility, 2019, pp 1-13 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a particularly challenging activity in developing countries where institutional infrastructure is young or weak. The challenge is even more significant in the mining industry where very often multi-national corporations are operating within the geographic and national boundaries of developing countries. This volume addresses one example of this challenge by examining the role of government, industry and community as affected by the discovery and mining of diamonds in the Marange fields of Zimbabwe. It is hoped the closer examination of one case, the Marange Diamond Mines, will provide guidance to the implementation of CSR strategies in developing countries.
