Abstract

This chapter introduces a stages-of-growth model for corporate social responsibility (CSR). CSR should include corporate actions to contribute as an active citizen in society to detect and prevent white-collar crime. White-collar crime undermines institutions in society and creates distrust to the elite that manages organizations in society. CSR implies that the organization is looking for opportunities in society where the organization can make a difference.
