The history of modern Socially Responsible Investment began with
the Apartheid crisis in South Africa in the 1970s. When asked if
divestment played a role in ending South African Apartheid, Nelson
Mandela answered "undoubtedly". But what about SRI in the 21st
century, does it make a difference for society? The first part of
this book explores the innovative approach of socially responsible
investors in building engagement approaches, mobilizing networks,
developing new products, and proposing alternative models showing
the potential to create change. The second part interrogates the
limits of SRI in making a difference. It questions the potential of
SRI to create change but also proposes ways to increase societal
impacts of SRI. The last section of the volume addresses the
boarder issues of values and governance and shows how they are
central in the SRI discussion. The book takes a critical but
constructive stance on SRI with the objective of contributing to
the capacity and ability of SRI to make a difference. Little
research has been undertaken on the societal impacts of SRI. With
this book we contribute to this debate, pushing the boundaries of
SRI even further.
