provide a brief insight (2-3 pages) into how CSR is being defined in their own country. Is it formal, informal? Are there business practices that might be acceptable within their own countries, but would conflict or not be accepted globally?

Students are asked to provide a brief insight (2-3 pages) into how CSR is being defined in their own country. Is it formal, informal? Are there business practices that might be acceptable within their own countries, but would conflict or not be accepted globally? What are examples of companies that appear to be good, bad CSR companies based on their understanding? Are there business practices that might be acceptable within their own country, but would not be acceptable globally? Learning Outcomes Targeted: Understanding what corporate responsibility is, and how its definition may vary depending upon 1) cultural influences and traditions 2) state of economic development. Quality Indicators (how will it be graded; what constitutes a good assignment): Students are assessed on how thoroughly they have considered the questions, how well they have researched the paper, including appropriate citations, and whether their understanding of CSR and observations about its practice in their country are well supported by the examples given.
