Abstract

Abstract Studies of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and stakeholder engagement have recently gained traction in the global strategy field. However, they have mostly developed as parallel streams, thereby limiting the cross-fertilization between global strategy research and stakeholder theory. We believe that because the CSR context in essence calls for the simultaneous participation of a large and heterogeneous set of local and global stakeholders, it requires a novel theorizing of multinational enterprises’ (MNEs’) worldwide practice implementation. Thus, we develop a series of propositions in the context of CSR to highlight the role stakeholders play in MNE subsidiaries’ implementation of initiatives, depending on the complex institutional pressures that they undergo, their distance from the parent’s home country, and their level of network embeddedness. We focus in particular on the role of stakeholder demands alignment in subsidiaries’ CSR implementation. Our conceptual propositions are enriched by the consideration of illustrative data on initiatives undertaken by Iberdrola from 2008 to 2014.
跨国公司企业社会责任战略实施:子公司利益相关者的作用
企业社会责任(CSR)和利益相关者参与的研究最近在全球战略领域获得了关注。然而,它们大多是平行发展的,从而限制了全球战略研究与利益相关者理论之间的相互作用。我们认为,由于企业社会责任本质上要求大量不同类型的本地和全球利益相关者同时参与,因此需要对跨国企业(MNEs)在全球范围内的实践实施提出一种新的理论。因此,我们在企业社会责任的背景下提出了一系列命题,以强调利益相关者在跨国公司子公司实施举措时所扮演的角色,这取决于他们所承受的复杂制度压力、与母公司母国的距离以及他们的网络嵌入水平。我们特别关注利益相关者需求在子公司企业社会责任实施中的作用。考虑到2008年至2014年Iberdrola所采取的举措的说明性数据,我们的概念命题得到了丰富。
