Corporate Social Responsibility and the Three Sectors in Asia: How Conscious Engagement Can Benefit Civil Society (Nonprofit and Civil Society Studies)

This volume investigates how much governmental control is needed to reign in corporate and business greed and to make business "socially responsible" in Asia. It also questions whether business entities need to be reigned in by the government itself, or if other social, religious, or economic dynamics shape business entities in Asia. Moreover, it looks at how the Asian third sector influences BSR/CSR activities. -- Provided by publisher, page 4 of cover Front Matter....Pages i-x Corporate Social Responsibility and the Three Sectors in Asia: Contexts and Perspectives....Pages 1-17 BSR in Transitional China: Traditions, Practices, and Future....Pages 19-43 CSR in Japan: Toward Integration and Corporate–CSO Partnership....Pages 45-71 Business Social Responsibility in South Korea: A Study of Relationships Between Korean Companies and NPOs....Pages 73-92 Corporate Social Responsibility in India: The Signs of a Promising Future....Pages 93-114 Corporate Social Responsibility in Thailand: Analyzing the Application of the Buddhist Principles....Pages 115-147 Corporate Social Responsibility and Public Governance: An Analysis of Their Interrelationships in GCC Countries....Pages 149-175 Corporate Social Responsibility and the United Nations Global Compact Initiative....Pages 177-197 Public Private Partnerships and Corporate Social Responsibility: Needs for and Impacts on Education in India and Indonesia....Pages 199-224 Corporate Social Responsibility in Asia: Tripartite Engagement and Its Future....Pages 225-243 Back Matter....Pages 245-246
