An enormous and developing assortment of literature to environmental issues and corporate social responsibility exists. Literatures on merging the environmental issues in the industry with corporate social responsibility are relatively limited. In order to merging these two, qualitative and quantitative data’s are used to identify the environmental issues in various industries. Considering this developing exploration area, the objective and aim for this paper is to analyze research in international scientific journals that focus on environmental issues, corporate social responsibility, and green supply chain management. We recommend the following queries need to be addressed: (i) what are the common factors considered? (ii) What are the popular MCDM tools used to solve the problems? (iii) What are possible suggestions can be followed? We find that common factors are categorized under three main categories such as social, economic and environmental factors. Common factors are further segregated into sub factors. The most common MCDM tool used was “, DEMATEL ISM and AHP”. Further analysis was done and gaps in literature are identified. These gaps aid us to find improvements for corporate social responsibility and possible future directions.

Purpose This study aims to identify which actors play leadership and brokerage roles in voluntary environmental collaborations and how the corporate social responsibility (CSR) of actors is associated with such voluntary networking behaviours in Cambodia. Design/methodology/approach To achieve these purposes, this study mainly uses social network analysis to capture the properties of networking behaviours in the voluntary collaborative activities underlying three main environmental issues: waste disposal, energy and water pollution. The study focusses on the collaborative efforts undertaken by actors across multiple sectors: governmental organizations, for-profits and civil society organizations. Findings The results show that the government plays the leading role in voluntary environmental collaborations across environmental issues; however, the actual implementation is expanded to be undertaken by non-state actors. Moreover, CSR has positive associations with networking and brokerage roles; therefore, this study reveals the utility of various voluntary policy instruments. Practical implications This study demonstrates the role of governmental initiation and its influence on non-state actors, even for voluntary environmental tools. The CSR initiatives of private actors can also be supported and encouraged by the government, which will promote participation by private actors in voluntary collaborative networks and their leading role as network facilitators. Social implications By understanding the positions and roles of each actor in the environmental collaborative networks, environmental policymakers can better understand the possibilities and the capabilities of each actor both to improve policy design and learning and to respond to policy changes effectively. Originality/value Voluntary collaboration and CSR are non-regulated policy tools; however, they can be promoted and introduced into society by governmental organizations, and they affect each other.

In India, Companies Act-2013 has called upon Corporate Houses having a net worth of Rs.500 crore or more, or a turnover of Rs.1000 crore or more, or a net profit of Rs.5 crore or more to have a CSR-spend of atleast 2 per cent of their average net profits of the preceding three years. The Act has identified 12 Activities relevant for CSR-spend. The CSR beneficiaries are those who live in villages and towns. The CSR is an obligation of the companies to discharge their social, economical, legal, ethical, and philanthropic responsibilities to benefit the common people. Business owners, employees and their families, stakeholders, share holders, suppliers, and dealers are excluded from the purview of CSR beneficiaries. Although the CSR-agenda started with effect from 1<sup>st</sup> April, 2014, the compliance of 2 per cent norm is hardly 13.50 per cent of 16000 and odd companies registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. In order to see mandatory 2 per cent spend in CSR activities, some sort of regulatory authority is much sought after. Similarly, companies own subsidiary Foundations formed especially for implementing their CSR activities should be discouraged, rather dispensed with. Instead, Corporate Houses should come together and form a “National Consortium For CSR Interventions”. Besides, atleast 41 per cent of CSR budget should be allocated to NGOs for implementing their CSR activities.

Do So

The notion of Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is still stirring debate over how it should be interpreted, what models of CSR dominate in business practice, and consequences of enterprises’ engagement into socially responsible actions. While business practice demonstrates that companies voluntarily include social and environmental issues into their activities and into their relations with stakeholders, it is hard to determine what intentions motivate them to do so. This paper analyses selected aspects of discussions focused on the notion of CSR and identifies controversies over the standardisation of ethical and social business activities.

Abstract:This paper examines corporate social responsibility in Japan today within the context of the paradigm of the moral unity of business. Under this paradigm, business is expected to operate under the same set of moral standards operative in other societal institutions. We suggest that a micro moral unity characterizes Japan—business activity is linked to that society’s moral values but only within carefully circumscribed communities of interest. Because of the strains brought on by the maturing of the Japanese economy, the negative consequences of this micro moral unity are now becoming apparent. A new paradigm will be required to address these challenges. A possible foundation for such a paradigm, based on the emerging notion of kyosei (living and working together for the common good), is discussed.

Abstract This article explores the profound mismatch between the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and fundamentals for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The common survival of human life, society, and the global order as we know it, and the need for companies to make profit is not easy. The intractability of the problem is often underestimated in public as well as scientific debate. This article discusses the problem and possible ways to cope with it through ‘social entrepreneurship’ illustrated here by a study of nine firms in Sweden. The study draws on an amalgamation of Schumpeterian theory about “creative destruction” and the concept of “Emerging Davids vs. Greening Goliaths.”
