Since the mid 1990s political and public debates about the social responsibilities of firms have gained renewed force. Although CSR seems to be a well defined concept in management literature, in its diverse applications the CSR concept loses much of its pertinence. In Managing Corporate Social Responsibility in Action, the authors focus on different aspects of managing CSR in action to capture differences between discourse and practice. By examining the question from three angles - talking about CSR, doing CSR and measuring CSR - they attempt to make sense of the difference between practice and reality. This volume considers ways to overcome the difficulties that arise around CSR in action.

Foreword
Its time to move the idea of CSR into the business mainstream. This can only happen when a broad range of business school faculty take on the task of showing how their disciplines can contribute to a better understanding of CSR. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), or even better, Corporate Stakeholder Responsibility (CSR), is about the practice of business. It is about how we create value and trade with each other. And, it is about the kinds of societies that we want to create and live in. In recent years, national governments, the European Commission, the United Nations, a number of NGOs, many business schools, and thousands of corporate executives have begun to turn their attention to this idea that capitalism is a vital part of civil society. Business is not now, and never has been inconsistent with thinking about how we remake our world to live better.
