Abstract
In this chapter, literature on CSR, lobbying and responsible lobbying is reviewed to provide the groundwork for the conceptual and empirical contributions that this study aims at. First, Chapter 2.2 elaborates on corporate responsibilities, i.e., the state of the art in literature on CSR, stakeholder theory, sustainability and the politicized concept of CSR. Chapter 2.3 provides a review of research on lobbying and the broader field of Corporate Political Activity (CPA); it includes a discussion of key social science theories that can be applied for lobbying studies and an examination to what extent these theories can be used in a responsible lobbying study. The final section (Chapter 2.4) delivers an overview on previous attempts to link lobbying and CSR and to analyze responsible lobbying.
