Abstract

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a global theme. However, social, cultural, and natural characteristics of each nation should influence the application of CSR. This chapter describes CSR practices in five countries: Brazil, Japan, India, Italy, and Romania. The method applied is a descriptive case study, and a qualitative analysis is made. Cross-cultural comparison studies may help one better understand how CSR practices emerge in each country in a globalized economy.
