Exploring themes associated with corruption, sustainable
development, and human rights and security, Robert J. Hanlon
considers the political dynamics of corporate social responsibility
(CSR) within the context of the 'Asian Century' and its place in an
increasingly multipolar world. By assessing how social
responsibility is changing the discourse around trade, development
and diplomacy, Hanlon sheds light on how competing visions of
social responsibility are influencing political narratives in China
and the West, examining multipolarity, the construction of Global
China, and the ascent of competitive pluralism. Chapters argue that
the liberal economic order founded at Bretton Woods is wavering
with Western governments and multinational corporations who are
seeking new strategies to compete against China, especially in
emerging economies known for weak governance structures and
dysfunctional rule of law. As CSR emerges as a political tool for
states and business actors, this timely book adopts a human
security approach for assessing the weaponization of political
values within an increasingly fragmented rule-based liberal order.
Expanding on the themes of constructivism, competitive pluralism
and progressive neoliberalism, while introducing the novel concept
of developmental CSR, this forward-thinking book will prove a vital
resource for students, scholars and policymakers interested in
Asian politics, public policy, CSR and international relations.
