Abstract

Corporate Social Responsibility in Local Communities as Collaboration among Government, Business, and Civil Society: Korea and Japan

Since in April 2017, this Joint Workshop has been funded as the Joint Research Projects under the Bilateral Collaborations Program by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRFK) since  The two year joint research aims to analyze the role of CSR in community development by examining six themes (diversity, welfare, consumer issues, business, employment, and environment) and focusing on the collaboration among three sectors: the government, businesses, and civil society. This workshop also aims to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of CSR collaboration in a civil society and democratic traditions under a strong centralized government and to identify the differences between Japanese and Korean political and social cultures. These comparisons will contribute in understanding of the CSR model in the Asian context.
