CHAPTER 17 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND ETHICS
Company responses to social issues fall into several categories, ranging from altruistic
company philanthropy and the concept of social enterprise, to defensive moves to protect
competitive position, to strategic moves that aim to create competitive advantage through
CSR initiatives. Our attention focuses on the latter areas: defensive CSR and creating com-
petitive advantage through CSR. We place this into a strategic marketing context by examin-
ing the impact of CSR on customer value, and the varying ways in which companies appear
to be responding to CSR imperatives.
