Corporate Citizenship: Toward an Extended Theoretical Conceptualization
批判性审视企业公民的现有理解,将其置于商业-社会关系研究中,提出一个描述性强且概念上区别于现有文献的理论定义,将企业公民视为管理个人公民权利(社会、公民和政治权利)的集合。
We critically examine the content of contemporary understandings of corporate citizenship and locate them within the extant body of research dealing with business-society relations. Our main purpose is to realize a theoretically informed definition of corporate citizenship that is descriptively robust and conceptually distinct from existing concepts in the literature. Specifically, our extended perspective exposes the element of “citizenship” and conceptualizes corporate citizenship as the administration of a bundle of individual citizenship rights—social, civil, and political—conventionally granted and protected by governments.
