Book Regards crois  s sur le ph  nom  ne de la responsabilit   sociale de l entreprise

Download or read book Regards crois s sur le ph nom ne de la responsabilit sociale de l entreprise written by Emmanuelle Mazuyer and published by La Documentation Française. This book was released on 2010 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Responsabilité Sociale de l'Entreprise (RSE) a pris, dans les années 1990, l'envergure d'un véritable phénomène. Les entreprises ont adopté une multitude d'instruments, comme les codes de conduite et chartes éthiques, censés incarner une conscience éthique, sociale et environnementale. Le présent ouvrage tente de saisir toute la complexité de ce phénomène en restituant les résultats d'une recherche collective et d'un colloque qui s'est tenu à Lyon le 12 juin 2009, financés dans le cadre d'un projet ATIP - Jeunes chercheurs du CNRS. Ces travaux se sont attachés à répondre à différentes questions. Quels sont les origines et les développements tant pratiques que théoriques de la RSE ? Comment participent-ils à une nouvelle forme de gouvernance des entreprises ? Comment les instruments de la RSE sont-ils mis en oeuvre ? Comment le système juridique les appréhende-t-il ? L'analyse juridico-institutionnelle de la RSE a semblé insuffisante pour rendre compte de toutes ses dimensions. Une approche pluridisciplinaire a donc été privilégiée face aux limites d'une analyse exclusivement juridique, économique ou sociologique. Des regards croisés " permettent d'appréhender l'objet d'analyse avec autant d'approches que de disciplines et d'auteurs. Les explications et les visions s'entrecroisent. Cette confrontation de regards sur le même objet permet une meilleure compréhension de la RSE. Les contributions ici rassemblées en développent les principaux aspects. Elles s'attachent d'abord à comprendre la genèse, la filiation et les objectifs de la RSE qu'ils soient sociologiques, historiques, économiques, internes ou externes à l'entreprise. Elles proposent ensuite un aperçu de l'encadrement juridique des pratiques de RSE au niveau international et européen, ainsi que de leurs différents prolongements : pratiques effectives des entreprises adhérentes au Pacte mondial des Nations Unies, négociation transnationale d'entreprise, réception des actes de la RSE par les juridictions françaises, recours à des normes techniques de certification ou d'audits, etc. Ainsi le présent ouvrage va-t-il au-delà des définitions usuelles aussi commodes que partielles et éclaire-t-il sous un nouveau jour ce phénomène complexe.

Book Responsabilit   sociale des entreprises

Download or read book Responsabilit sociale des entreprises written by François Guy Trébulle and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La RSE ou responsabilité sociale des entreprises n'est pas nouvelle, loin s'en faut. Elle correspond au contraire à des axes structurants, évidemment et naturellement saisis par les sciences de gestion comme par le droit. Pourtant l'essor de la notion est tel qu'elle suscite à la fois engouements et suspicions. Cet ouvrage entend contribuer à la réflexion sur la RSE et, au-delà, sur l'entreprise dans son ensemble en proposant des analyses de juristes et de gestionnaires. Son objet est de donner à voir la RSE sous ce double éclairage, dans cette double dynamique. Les meilleurs spécialistes, universitaires et praticiens, se sont rencontrés à l'initiative du CE-DAG de l'Université Paris Descartes et livrent ici des considérations sur le fondement desquelles il est possible de penser l'entreprise dans son environnement.

Book Corporate Social Responsibility

Download or read book Corporate Social Responsibility written by Catherine Malecki and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2018 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is setting new missions for companies and shining a welcome light on issues such as the behaviour of board members, shared value, the well-being of stakeholders, the protection of vulnerable individuals and the roles played by public opinion and shareholders. This timely book seeks to lay the foundations for a sustainable corporate governance based on the European Commission definition of CSR as ‘the responsibility of enterprises for their impacts on society’. More generally, this sustainable corporate governance responds to some of the pressing challenges of the 21st century, from sustainable finance and climate change to carbon reduction and population growth.

Book Business  Innovation and Responsibility

Download or read book Business Innovation and Responsibility written by Sophie Pellé and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-10-09 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responsible Innovation. For some, this expression is only an oxymoron or, worse, a means of masking with a sheet of virtue economic practices that would otherwise appear selfish and self-interested. For others, theorists and actors of innovation, this expression represents a formidable lever of action and a rich conceptual source from which to draw new ways of innovating. The articulation between different levels of norms – economic and ethical, to which we can add the legal dimension – is not new, and is the subject of an in-depth reflection, decades old, around the idea of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). By taking up some debates on CSR, most of which are foreign to the current authors of responsible innovation, this book examines the various justifications that CSR brings in order to convince economic players, subject to powerful market forces, of their responsible commitment. But these are not enough. The book also explores the specific contribution of the concept of responsible innovation to coping with the technological, social and political breakthroughs generated by innovation, and is based on philosophical resources such as the ethics of virtue and the ethics of “care”.

Book Humanitarian Ecological Economics and Accounting

Download or read book Humanitarian Ecological Economics and Accounting written by Jacques Richard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-17 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strict conversation of financial capital allows accountants to preserve capitalism in its current form. Thus, building a more humane economy will require a new accounting model. Humanitarian Ecological Economics and Accounting: Capitalism, Ecology and Democracy argues for the adoption of a CARE model: comprehensive accounting in respect of ecology. This new model will take the traditional weapons of capitalist accounting and turn them against capitalism, with a goal to protect and conserve human and natural capital within the framework of a democratic society. The CARE model has been conceived as the potential basis of a new type of market economy and of a new type of governance of firms and nations. Additionally, this allows for a new conception of capital, cost and profit that helps with moves towards a society of the commons. The first part of the book explores the reconstruction of accounting and economics from the ground up, outlining the theoretical basis for the model. The second part of the book explores the transformation of the governance of firms and nations. Finally, an additional section is dedicated to the conception of a new model of national accounting. This book will be of significant interest to readers of ecological economics, critical accounting and heterodox economics.

Book Private International Law Aspects of Corporate Social Responsibility

Download or read book Private International Law Aspects of Corporate Social Responsibility written by Catherine Kessedjian and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses one of the core challenges in the corporate social responsibility (or business and human rights) debate: how to ensure adequate access to remedy for victims of corporate abuses that infringe upon their human rights. However, ensuring access to remedy depends on a series of normative and judicial elements that become highly complex when disputes are transnational. In such cases, courts need to consider and apply different laws that relate to company governance, to determine the competent forum, to define which bodies of law to apply, and to ensure the adequate execution of judgments. The book also discusses how alternative methods of dispute settlement can relate to this topic, and the important role that private international law plays in access to remedy for corporate-related human rights abuses. This collection comprises 20 national reports from jurisdictions in Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia, addressing the private international law aspects of corporate social responsibility. They provide an overview of the legal differences between geographical areas, and offer numerous examples of how states and their courts have resolved disputes involving private international law elements. The book draws two preliminary conclusions: that there is a need for a better understanding of the role that private international law plays in cases involving transnational elements, in order to better design transnational solutions to the issues posed by economic globalisation; and that the treaty negotiations on business and human rights in the United Nations could offer a forum to clarify and unify several of the elements that underpin transnational disputes involving corporate human rights abuses, which could also help to identify and bridge the existing gaps that limit effective access to remedy. Adopting a comparative approach, this book appeals to academics, lawyers, judges and legislators concerned with the issue of access to remedy and reparation for corporate abuses under the prism of private international law.

Book Responsible Organizations in the Global Context

Download or read book Responsible Organizations in the Global Context written by Annie Bartoli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to spur critical thought on the various dimensions and impacts of “responsibility” for organizations, including companies, institutions, and governments, while considering international differences and similarities, as well as global challenges. It analyzes to what extent responsibility is becoming a crucial issue for all kinds of organizations, examining both the intensifying pressures of international competition and the growing crisis of confidence towards some management concepts and practices. As more and more socio-economic and political systems are suspected of serving selfish interests instead of the public good, more accountable and integrated processes are appropriate in order to deal with the present and future stakes of our society. Further, with the development of digital technology and the use of data mining, new questions regarding responsibility require examination. This edited collection is a culmination of the international scientific conference "Responsible Organizations in the Global Context", co-organized by the CIED of Georgetown University (United States) and the Larequoi Research Center of the University of Versailles St-Quentin (France) in June 2017 in Washington DC. It will contribute to research and actions in the areas of social responsibility, business ethics, organizational excellence, sustainability, and cross-cultural management.

Book International Labour Law

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jean-Michel Servais
  • Publisher : Kluwer Law International B.V.
  • Release : 2020-06-21
  • ISBN : 9403521635
  • Pages : 389 pages

Download or read book International Labour Law written by Jean-Michel Servais and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-06-21 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one will deny that labour standards comprise a necessary framework for balanced economic and social development. Yet on a global level such balanced development has not occurred, despite the existence of a rigorous body of international labour law that has been active and growing for almost one hundred years. The implementation of this law devolves upon states; yet many states have failed to honour it. If we are to take serious steps toward a remedy for this situation, there is no better place to start than a thorough, well-researched survey and analysis of existing international labour law - its sources, its content, its historical development, and an informed consideration of the barriers to its full effectiveness. This book is exactly such a resource. It provides in-depth interpretation of the crucial International Labour Organisation (ILO) the relationship between international labour law and economic competition standards on industrial relations collective bargaining and dispute settlement procedures protection of trade unions prohibitions on enforced and child labour promotion of equal opportunity and treatment time and rest provisions wage determination and protection occupational health and safety provisions special issues on non-standard forms of employment foreign and migrant workers social security provisions privacy protection The presentation demonstrates that these rules and standards offer invaluable benchmarks to governments, judiciaries, employers, and trade unions. The book’s combination of detailed commentary and an overarching social policy will make it especially valuable to legislators, human resources managers, employers organizations, trade unions, jurists, and academics concerned with the role of work in our globalized social system. This sixth edition of the book by Jean-Michel Servais analyses the potential of those standards in a globalized world, and the necessary evolution. It examines the actual implementation of those rules in the national context, comparing different experiences. It integrates the latest instruments. It examines the most recent public debates on labour regulation (dealing with health and security at work, personal data, minimum wages, social security, strikes, etc.), updates the bibliography and opens some perspectives for the future work of the global institutions.

Book Transforming European Employment Policy

Download or read book Transforming European Employment Policy written by Ralf Rogowski and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid 1990s, the focus of European employment and social policy has shifted from protection to promotion. This book provides a timely analysis of this new form of governance, and the new forms of policy delivery and audit which accompany it. The limitations of the current approach became particularly apparent during the financial crisis of 2008, and it has now reached a turning point. The book offers a new coherent European reform agenda that views easing transitions in employment and promoting the development of individual and collective capabilities as cornerstones. The contributing authors focus on vocational training, life course policies, reflexive labour law and social insurance, from theoretical, empirical and practical perspectives. Transforming European Employment Policy will be of great benefit to policymakers as well as those researching or studying European law, labour law, industrial relations, political science, social policy or international business.

Book Crisis  Globalization and Governance

Download or read book Crisis Globalization and Governance written by Nehme Azoury and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these constantly challenging times, business practices that were once considered successful, applicable and rewarding are questioned by the implications of increased globalization. National, regional and international market crises have raised the barriers for a necessary implementation of practices related, but not limited, to ethics and governance. In this spirit, this book tackles a potential and desirable way of reinventing and implementing specific types of governance (both at the private and public levels), in order to reorient the current globalization process in a safer and much more efficient way. It is grounded mainly in three disciplines: the first is the economic sciences, given the book’s concern with microeconomic regulation and economic regulation. The second, the business sciences field, allows for the discussion of strategies of relocalization of businesses, social governance and its impact on organizations, the management of information, and disclosure. The final area of study detailed in the book is the political and administrative field, as it sheds light on the public dimension of governance in the educational sector. In short, this book provides strategies for the promotion or restoration of public interest and social democracy.
