本文探讨了企业社会责任和一个短语之间的关系,这个短语正在迅速成为对同一事物的首选描述,但现在设置在国际背景下,即全球企业公民身份。有人认为,这两者之间的区别还没有足够清楚地在文献中。在澄清这一区别时,着重探讨了公民身份概念的政治性质,并探讨了在跨国公司活动中引入三线考虑的政治问题。与广泛的民间社会参与者的公司,以进一步的“道德”议程,在国际范围内的“企业民主”的重新考虑,以及一个“进步资本主义”集团的公司,可能带头真正的企业公民的想法集中在这次评估。最后,提出了全球企业公民联盟的政治,这将使公司远远超出仅仅注意和关注其社会和环境责任的有限议程。
This article investigates the relationship between corporate social responsibility and a phrase that is fast becoming a preferred description of much the same thing but now set in an international context, namely global corporate citizenship. It is argued that the distinction between these two has not been clearly enough made in the literature. In clarifying the difference, the political nature of the idea of citizenship is focused upon and the politics of introducing triple-line considerations into the activity of transnational corporations is explored. An engagement with a wide range of civil society actors by corporations to further the ‘ethical’ agenda, a reconsideration of ‘corporate democracy’ in an international context, and the idea of a ‘progressive capitalist’ group of companies that might spear-head genuine corporate citizenship are concentrated upon in this assessment. Finally, the politics of an alliance for global corporate citizenship is broached that would take companies well beyond the limited agenda of just noting and attending to their social and environmental responsibilities.
