Corporate Social Responsibility and the Three Sectors in Asia

Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of BSR in China. It first reviews the history of BSR in China before the twentieth century to lay the cultural background for the discussion. It also illustrates how BSR was reintroduced in modern China after the economic reform to provide the social and economic background for the discussion. Then the chapter introduces the current legislative framework for BSR under the Communist Party’s leadership. Afterward, it provides detailed data and cases on BSR practices in traditional enterprises (state-owned enterprises , Chinese private enterprises , and multi-national corporations) as well as the newly emerged social enterprises . The study then (using the latest research findings and media reports) analyzes the current level of BSR performance and its challenges in each type of enterprise. Finally, the chapter offers some recommendations for BSR policy and practice in China.
