Corporate Social Responsibility: Global Context and Russian Reality

https://doi.org/10.32609/0042-8736-2005-10-90-102

Abstract

The author argues that the key criterion of CSR is partial substitution of market-based relations and incentives for non-market cooperation among all kinds of stakeholders in the reproduction behavior of the firm. On the basis of this criterion three levels of CSR are distinguished and the specifics of CSR in the Russian context is highlighted. It is shown that the lack of state social expenditures and the coherent system of benefits for socially responsible firms coupled with dominating paternalistic relations hinder the development of socially responsible behavior above the basic level.
