企业社会责任（csr）倡议在多大程度上有助于解决贫困、社会排斥和其他发展挑战？在解决这些问题和实现联合国千年发展目标方面，国家、市场和民间社会之间的责任如何平衡？需要哪些新的工具、战略和方法来利用企业对发展的积极潜在贡献并遏制企业的不负责任？这期特刊汇集了活跃的学者和发展专家，以重点突出和创新的方式讨论这些主题。在这篇介绍性的文章中，我们考虑了一些关键的交叉主题和由贡献提出的见解。导言和特刊的目的是开始填补我们在理解企业如何、何时和通过何种手段帮助减贫方面的差距，同时认识到企业界在加剧贫困方面同样具有强大的潜力。以特定的企业社会责任倡议为出发点，我们试图看看更广泛的发展足迹，一切照旧的战略，以及那些属于企业社会责任的旗帜，以获得一个更全面的图片如何业务牵连在发展过程中。
Abstract How far can Corporate Social Responsibility (csr) initiatives help to address poverty, social exclusion and other development challenges? What is the balance of responsibilities between state, market and civil society in addressing these problems and meeting the UN Millennium Development Goals (mdgs)? What new tools, strategies and methodologies are required to harness the positive potential contribution of business to development and deter corporate irresponsibility? This special issue brings together a dynamic mix of academics and development specialists to address these themes in a focused and innovative way. In this introductory article, we consider some of the key cross-cutting themes and insights raised by the contributions. The aim of the introduction and the special issue is to start to fill the gap in our understanding of how, when and through what means business can help to reduce poverty, while recognising the equally powerful potential of the business community to exacerbate poverty. Taking particular csr initiatives as a starting point, we seek to look at the broader developmental footprint of business-as-usual strategies, as well as those which fall under the banner of csr, to gain a fuller picture of how business is implicated in the development process.
