Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a very dynamic and rapidly expanding idea, both as a theoretical conception and as a practice recommended to the firms.In theory there is a long lasting dispute about the essence of CSR and its justification from the ethical and praxiological point of view. The old arguments against CSR, formulated by Fridman, are still repeated although they must be reformulated in times of globalization. After reconstructing the theoretical assumption of CSR the authoress presents weaknesses and limits of its conception. Although its postulates seem to be right in theory, their accomplishment proved difficult. The social and ecological stakes are very hard to measure and compare, if possible at all. In theory it conduces the originating of the vague, incoherent views which are impossible to verify. In practice the rhetoric of CSR may be a smokescreen to conceal firms unethical actions

The author would like to present this problem because still few researchers pay attention to ethical and responsible conduct which should be the most important dimension of leadership. Leaders are responsible in many dimensions and their mental maturity and imagination are always needed.

Their responsibility exceeds beyond their official duties because they are also responsible as human beings.

The paper presents selected cases of multinational enterprises, which are the leaders in stakeholder relations in Poland. The empirical part is preceded by the introduction, which situates the case studies in the theoretical framework of industrial relations. In this area the generalization of evidence from the existing capitalist systems has produced two perspectives. Corporate governance is perceived from shareholder's view as well as from stakeholder's view. The presented results refer to the second of the mentioned models. The empirical part discusses the origins of the practice of incorporating stakeholders' expectations into companies' operations and presents types of stakeholders' participation, as well as the process of dialogue institutionalisation. Finally, recommendations concerning the inner-organizational conditions promoting effective dialogue are formulated.

“The future we want”, the main document summarizing the action areas advocated by the Rio+20 conference (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, June 20-22nd), advocates “green economy” as a main instrument to eradicate poverty, while maintaining the healthy functioning of the environment. “Green economy” is a reply to global capitalism and the excesses of its elite practitioners, as they became manifest during the recent economic crisis. It roots in the observation of the parallels between the world’s ecological crisis and the financial crisis. Both are products of a failed economic and social system. The green economy model holds the potential to bring together the needs for economic security and environmental protection, and to integrate an array of reforms in policy initiatives, regulatory actions, business standards and personal lifestyle behaviors. A classical contribution of the private business sector to sustainable development is corporate social responsibility (CSR). The concept dovetails in the doctrine that a company is not only responsible for a positive economic performance, but also has to take care about the environmental, social and ethical aspects of its activities. Companies have to transparently report on these activities in their sustainability or CSR report. One of the main external advantages for CSR conscientious companies is that they are included by banks in ethical and sustainability portfolios. These funds, although originating in the US Methodist and Quakers traditions, are among the fast growing sections of the products offered by European banks. The CSR system is criticized by developing countries and NGOs for its improper use of green economy products (“green washing”). This paper shows that a “green economy” will be a necessary part of a more sustainable society in the future. CSR is a useful instrument contributing to this evolution. Optioning for CSR should be based on ethical considerations and the conviction that “going green” is important for the future of industry and services, rather than on the expectation of short term monetary profitability. More research on assessment methods and more coherence in the practical implementation of CSR are mandatory.

The aim of this paper is to present engaged anthropology and its methodological tools with a specific perspective of the research field and the position of the researcher with regard to research subjects. The study focuses on corporate volunteering as one of the forms of collaboration between the non-profit and the private sectors seeking solutions to social problems and community development. Volunteering projects contribute to the interlinking of the knowledge, skills, experience and resources of corporate employees and the representatives of the non-profit or the public sector. It is a part of the philanthropic strategy of companies which are willing to present themselves as entities responsible towards the environment in which they run their business, and towards their employees, partners and customers. Engaged anthropology can bring, through its methodological tools, a new perspective of corporate volunteering. Community-based participatory research on the process of knowledge creation includes all partners on an equal basis and identifies their unique contribution to problem solution and community development
