Abstract

In Chapter 9 we analyze the nature of responsibility and propose four generalizations about it. From observation of distinctive CSR content in the cases examined in our first chapters, we derive four generalizations about responsibility: (1) responsibility always exists, independent of the awareness of the responsible person or organization; (2) awareness can be gained of one’s own responsibility; (3) an organization can manage its own responsibility; (4) a responsibility report is the vehicle for accounting for an organization’s awareness and management of its own responsibility.
