Combining insights from international relations theory with
institutional approaches from organization theory and public
policy, this book provides a complete explanation for the adoption
of corporate social responsibility (CSR), showing how global norms
influenced CSR adoption in the mining industry. Global normative
developments have clearly had an important influence on major
mining companies: by the mid-2000s, the majority had adopted
sustainable development as a normative frame for their CSR policies
and practices. However, there is significant variation between
firms in terms of the timing, degree of commitment, and the
willingness to assume a leadership role in promoting global
standards for the mining industry. The author finds that attributes
internal to the firm, including the critical role of leadership,
and the way in which management responds to the institutional
context and operational challenges faced in different countries are
important influences on CSR adoption and important factors
explaining variation.
