The business of business is business. So why should corporations be
involved in development? This groundbreaking new book makes the
case that governments and their international agencies, grouped
under the umbrella of the United Nations, have failed in their
attempts to rid the planet of underdevelopment and poverty. If
development is the objective then it seems that the solution and
the responsibility lies with the private sector - particularly
through the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programmes of
large corporations, with their tremendous power and economic
strength. Written by noted CSR practitioner Michael Hopkins, this
book is the first to explicitly link CSR with development. It
spells out what corporations are doing on development, what more
they could do and how CSR can be a useful tool to promote economic
development via corporations. This is important and challenging
reading for all of those in government, business and NGOs who think
that there must be a better, more effective and dynamic way to
kick-start development and eradicate poverty.
