Abstract: | In accounting for the ascendancy of stakeholder theory, this article presents an overview of two traditional conceptualizations of corporate social responsibility (CSR) by Carroll (1979) and Wood (1991), emphasizing their predominant inclination toward providing static taxonomic CSR descriptions. The case is made for a stakeholder approach to CSR, reviewing its rationale and outlining how it is integrated into recent empirical studies. A stakeholder framework, the Ethical Performance Scorecard (EPS) proposed by Spiller (2000) is adopted in order to examine the CSR approach of a sample of Lebanese and Syrian firms. |
