Corporate Social Responsibility: Recruiting well by doing good?

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an enormously complex field, and yet still an evolving subject. The study is focussing on the nature and current thinking about corporate social responsibility and related theories. Although difficult to define, new trends such as standardised reporting and management initiatives have emerged. Despite ample empirical studies the effects of CSR on companies and stakeholders are still unclear, nourishing the fierce dispute on the "if" of CSR as well as the "hows".
