Abstract

Despite numerous efforts to produce a clear and objective definition of corporate social responsibility (CSR), there is still confusion regarding how CSR should be defined. In this work four dimensions of CSR are developed, by performing a content analysis of existing CSR definitions. Frequency counters are used to analyze how often these dimensions are present. The analysis shows how existing definitions are similar to a high degree. The article comes to the conclusion that confusion is not about the way CSR is defined, but how companies built in a specific context.
