Abstract:
Abstract While the global extensiveness of CSR in modern capitalism is a systemic reality and is drawing increasing attention from scholars from many disciplines, this ubiquity also masks notable differences occurring at the national and regional levels in corporate responsibility activities and policies. This chapter surveys some of the growing research into how CSR varies in the developed world, specifically in the two regions that contain the most advanced economies. For the foreseeable future, corporate social responsibility will be inextricably linked to its evolution within the core of the developed world, the countries in the regions of North America and Europe. Most of the research that attempts to assess the similarities and differences of CSR in these regions has been rather limited. But the more recent contributions noted and assessed here offer us more insights and highlight some important dynamics to consider when evaluating the future of corporate social responsibility.
