This volume contains 11 essays by researchers from Europe, the Middle East, India, and Australia, who examine the relationship between corporate social responsibility and stakeholding. They first discuss theories on hyper-transparency, the role of shapeholders as a link between a firm and non-stakeholders, microfinance and women empowerment, managing with depleted resources, and corporate stakeholding and globalism, then look at stakeholding in practice, including influences on stakeholder engagement in sustainability accounting and reporting in Australian local councils, determinants of sustainability e-reporting in Portuguese municipalities, the relationship between corporate social responsibility and financial performance, corporate social responsibility and cause-related marketing in school sports events, avant-grade social entrepreneurs in India, and types of social responsibility practices across industries in Pakistan.
