    Corporate Social Responsibility:
    Although CSR is a relatively new term
    its roots go back a long term and can
    be traced to a variety of philosophical,
    ethical, and environmental discourses.
    Thus there are a number of different
    approaches to CSR as well as a number
    of different definitions of what exactly CSR
    comprises. All however have fundamental
    implications for the activity of corporations
    and their managers as well as for the
    various stakeholders of the corporation.
    All impact upon the performance of a
    corporation and how that might be evaluated
    by these various stakeholders. Furthermore
    the concept has been extended to apply
    not just to corporations but to many
    other (not necessarily profit seeking
    forms of organisation).
