| Tiivistelmä: | This article provides information about 294 stakeholder dialogue (SD) initiatives gathered by a content analysis of the sustainability reports published by large firms in Germany, Italy, and the U.S. In addition to a country-based description of the different forms, stakeholder categories, and topics of the SD initiatives, explored are the relationship btw. SD and characteristics of national business systems. In general, firms are found to perform few SD initiatives, using low-involvement forms of dialog, and focusing on one category of stakeholders per initiative. It is suggested that the explicit approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR) favours the quantity of SD initiatives, yet neglecting the importance of the level of involvement and diversity of stakeholders participating at the dialog. Finally, public policies on CSR are found to have a substantial influence on SD in national business systems with an implicit approach to CSR. |
