Does Business Owe Society?

Does Business Owe Society?

Paper details First, think about this question: what do you think Business owes society? Then, read the Porter and Kramer article (2006). Based upon your reading of Porter, has your view changed? How should what business owes society be enforced (government, industry standards, no enforcement at all)? Extending from Porter, how and when do you think CSR translates to firm performance? From a consumer and investor standpoint, how do you see this changing over time, and why? Feel free to include relevant examples from companies you may learn about through web searches, or from this week’s readings about Patagonia.
