Social, economic and environmental capital : corporate citizenship in a new economy
Corporate Citizenship as a concept has been with us for many years now, but the 1990s saw a revitalisation of its main themes and issues, particularly around corporate social responsibility, business/community partnerships and social auditing/accountability. More recently, moves have been made, mostly in Europe, to reposition corporate citizenship more fully into new economics thinking. This paper examines this thinking and the effects this may have on the development of corporate citizenship as a new paradigm in the sustainability debate.
