Main Concepts of CSR
CSR (Carrol, 1979)
Firms have responsibilities to societies including economic, legal, ethical and discretionary (or philanthropic).
- See also DeGeorge (1999) on the “Myth of the Amoral Firm”
Social Contract (Donaldson, 1982; Donaldson and Dunfee, 1999) – There is a tacit social contract between the firm and society; the contract bestows certain rights in exchange for certain responsibilities.
Stakeholder Theory (Freeman, 1984) – A stakeholder is “any group or individual who can affect or is affected by the achievement of an organisation’s purpose.” Argues that it is in the company’s strategic interest to respect the interests of all its stakeholders.

Sustainable business development does not come about of its own accord.
Rather, commitment to sustainability demands that corporate processes be reliably controlled and that everyone's actions - in finance as much as in environmental and social areas - be coordinated.
Prerequisites for this are binding guidelines, unambiguous corporate goals and a clear organizational structure.
