摘要

批判性学术通常将企业社会责任(CSR)视为新自由主义的反映或体现。针对这种笼统的政治特征,我们认为企业社会责任确实可以被认为是一个自由主义的概念,但它体现了“各种自由主义”。在迈克尔·弗里登(Michael Freeden)关于自由主义语言的研究、约翰·鲁吉(John Ruggie)和卡尔·波兰尼(Karl Polanyi)关于自由主义嵌入形式的研究以及米歇尔·福柯(Michel Foucault)关于古典自由主义和新自由主义之间区别的研究的理论基础上,我们提供了一种概念处理和意识形态立场的映射,这些立场构成了现代学术CSR辩论的主体。因此,我们区分了嵌入式自由主义、古典自由主义、新自由主义和再嵌入式自由主义。我们依次发展了这四个方向,并展示了它们如何参与关于企业责任的含义和范围的“思想之战”,以及它们如何与理解当代CSR和企业可持续发展领域的辩论和发展保持相关。

Ideologies of Corporate Responsibility: From Neoliberalism to “Varieties of Liberalism”
Critical scholarship often presents corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a reflection or embodiment of neoliberalism. Against this sort of sweeping political characterization we argue that CSR can indeed be considered a liberal concept but that it embodies a “varieties of liberalism.” Building theoretically on the work of Michael Freeden on liberal languages, John Ruggie and Karl Polanyi on embedded forms of liberalism, and Michel Foucault on the distinction between classical liberalism and neoliberalism, we provide a conceptual treatment and mapping of the ideological positions that constitute the bulk of modern scholarly CSR debate. Thus, we distinguish between embedded liberalism, classical liberalism, neoliberalism, and re-embedded liberalism. We develop these four orientations in turn and show how they are engaged in “battles of ideas” over the meaning and scope of corporate responsibilities—and how they all remain relevant for an understanding of contemporary debates and developments in the field of CSR and corporate sustainability.

期刊介绍: Business Ethics Quarterly (BEQ) is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that publishes theoretical and empirical research relevant to the ethics of business. Since 1991 this multidisciplinary journal has published articles and reviews on a broad range of topics, including the internal ethics of business organizations, the role of business organizations in larger social, political and cultural frameworks, and the ethical quality of market-based societies and market-based relationships. It recognizes that contributions to the better understanding of business ethics can come from any quarter and therefore publishes scholarship rooted in the humanities, social sciences, and professional fields.
