5th CR3+ Conference
The fifth CR3+ conference will take place at Hanken in Helsinki on April 28-29, 2017. You can follow the plenary sessions of the conference online streamed live at https://hanken.kurssi.tv/lives/cr3/.
It is co-organized by
- Hanken School of Economics (Helsinki, Finland),
- Audencia Business School (Nantes, France),
- ISAE/FGV (Curitiba, Brazil) and
- La Trobe University Business School (Melbourne, Australia)
The overall theme of the conference is 'Making Corporate Responsibility useful'.
Until now the concept of Corporate Responsibility / Corporate Social Responsibility (hereafter CR), as used in business studies, may have been mostly made useful from the perspective of the ‘business case’, as exemplified by the long debate around the alleged positive relationship between Corporate Social Performance (CSP) and Corporate Financial Performance (CFP).
Too often, while the supposed positive impacts of CR on the business bottom line have been a key claim for legitimizing CR practice in business, business schools and business journals, the impacts on society have tended to be less closely investigated, or only from a win-win perspective focusing on obvious positive impacts without problematizing potential negative externalities.
All questions in relation to the conference should be directed to ccr@hanken.fi.
