Abstract:This paper analyses CSR as a political discourse in which different actors struggle to fill the empty shell of corporate social responsibility with a legitimate interpretation. The current debate on CSR in Austria is taken as an example to demonstrate how this debate is shaped by changes in the greater socio-economic environment. The authors claim that the debate and the political moves concerning an implicit or an explicit concept of CSR are rooted in a more fundamental question: the societal (re-)embedding or disembedding of companies.
