Abstract

Although the business sector lies at the core of the debate on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), other stakeholders participate in catalysing the various demands made by society on companies. The debate on the role of governments as promoters or drivers of CSR has been present since the early 1990s (Moon and Sochaki 1996; Aaronson and Reeves 2002a, 2002b; Fox et al. 2002; Zappal 2003) along with the first governmental policy to emerge on initiatives in the field. Nowadays, an important number of governments have taken policy initiatives promoting CSR.
