The issue of transnational governance is current and relevant to political science. The aim of the project was to determine the most important mechanisms of transnational governance and evaluation of their performance in the dimension of normative-institutional, in terms of democratic legitimacy, accountability, in the context of globalization and Europeanization, in the context of EU enlargement and the status of European Union citizenship, and also in terms of implementation of transnational law and policies at the national level. The authors of the analysis unit shot in the project and proposed theoretical conceptualization helped to demonstrate that the changes taking place in the modern world are complex, multilevel, multi-dimensional and dynamic. The concept of transnational governance shows it is necessary to construct new research models, which assume and accept uncertainty and indeterminacy.

What influences firms to engage in socially responsible (irresponsible) activities? Corporate social responsibility (CSR), the efforts of firms to create a positive and desirable impact on society, and corporate social irresponsibility (CSI), contrary actions of unethical behavior that negatively influence society, have become an important focus of discussion for both corporations and scholars. Despite this interest, our understanding of organizations’ socially responsible (irresponsible) actions and their antecedents is still developing. A dearth of knowledge about the multi-level nature of the drivers of CSR and CSI continues to exist. Utilizing a longitudinal sample composed of 899 firms in 66 industries, we follow a prominent model to empirically examine industry-, firm-, and individual-level effects on CSR and CSI. Employing variance decomposition analysis, our results confirm that all three levels of investigation do indeed influence CSR and CSI. More substantively, our analysis estimates the magnitude of the effects attributable to each of the three levels for both CSR and CSI. We also compare multi-level influences on two separate CSR strategies, those targeting primary stakeholders (strategic CSR) and those targeting secondary stakeholders (social CSR). We find greater industry- and firmlevel effects on social CSR, and higher individual-level effects on strategic CSR. Our results build on the conceptual work of previous authors by providing empirical analyses to confirm multilevel influences on CSR and extending prior multi-level theory to the concept of CSI. Further, we add to the emerging literature regarding stakeholder demands by examining the various influences on CSR strategies targeting different stakeholder groups.
