Summary
The concluding chapter contextualises the book within some problematic questions on business and social responsibility, particularly from multijurisdictional and globalisation perspectives. It traces the origin and evolution of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and explains the emergence and role of law, regulation, governance and policy as an antithesis to the fundamental voluntary and market-based notion of CSR. The chapter notes that there are unexplored questions even though CSR and regulation have met particularly through smart-mix or smart-regulation discourse.
