Abstract

Das dynamische Forschungsfeld CSR laesst bereits einige konkurrierende Denkrichtungen erkennen, die wir als Narrative bezeichnen. Diese Narrative bieten der relativ jungen CSR-Bewegung Identitaeten, die unhinterfragt angenommen werden. Dies wird in der wissenschaftlichen Debatte zu einem Problem, da die vorwissenschaftlichen Praemissen dieser Denkgebaeude nicht offengelegt werden, sondern vermeintlich objektive Sachzwaenge und deren Folgen begruenden. Mehrere Beispiele illustrieren diese These. (The dynamic field of CSR-research already has brought about some competing patterns to which we refer as narratives. These narratives provide identities for a nascent field of research that are accepted without further debate. This can become a problem for research: neither are pre-scientific premises being disclosed nor are seemingly given necessities and their consequences being accounted for. Several examples illustrate our case.)
