Challenges for Social Responsibility in Activities for Economic Development.
Abstract
Статья посвящена проблемам, стоящим перед государством и хозяйствующими субъектами микроуровня, в аспекте их роли и ответственности за благополучие нынешнего и будущих поколений. В статье приведены ошибки, преднамеренные злоупотребления и даже преступления, с которыми сталкиваются экономические субъекты. Авторы также раскрывают и положительные практики экономических организаций, которые обсуждались, в частности, на Всемирном Бизнес Совете по устойчивому развитию. Одной из фундаментальных проблем на макроуровне, связанными с ответственностью государства, является ответственное использование государственного долга. Его нерациональное и чрезмерное использование может привести к негативным экономическим и социальным последствиям, которые также рассматриваются в статье. Ключевые слова: корпоративная социальная ответственность, корпоративное управление, этика бизнеса. = This article treats of the challenges facing the state and the micro-entities of economic life in the category of their role and responsibility for the well-being of present and future generations. This idealistic formulation is a point of reference for the presented discourse. A number of mistakes, and deliberate abuses, and even crimes encountered by the listed entities are enumerated. However, the legitimacy and the essence of competitiveness is not challenged, but only the responsibility of entities for the ethical side of its regulations are indicated, thereby its functioning per se. The article also shows good practices of economic organizations (companies) in this regard, which are promoted, among others, by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development and which favour ethical economic growth. Real actions, not their marking often referred to as the Greenwash activity, are considered appropriate. At the macro level, one of the fundamental problems concerning the liability of the state is emphasized, the responsible use of public debt. Its irrational use and excessive levels lead to negative economic and social consequences, which is also considered in the paper. Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility, corporate governance, business ethics.References
