Course Syllabus

Abstract

In ‘CSR and Aspects of Sustainability in International Management’, students will debate and discuss the topic of corporate social responsibility and sustainability from different, often opposing, ethical perspectives. Using the seminars to create a theoretical framework that supports such perspectives, the lectures will focus on current examples of ESG practices. The module begins with the conceptualisation of CSR and sustainability, followed by a detailed examination of the interdependent forces that steer ethical decision-making in business and in management. While appreciating the reality of ESG practices, we also focus on the impact that managerial authority has both on individual and organisational integrity, and on the operationalisation of CSR, sustainability, and our own social responsibility in management.

Learning Objectives
