尽管亚太地区有许多国家被视为经济发展迅速的新兴市场,但该地区还有许多国家处于发展阶段,这些国家面临着诸如消除贫穷,提高国民健康和生活水平等发展中的挑战。在全球化的背景下,大型跨国企业不仅对亚太地区的经济发展有所促进,还带来了它们的企业社会责任理念和实践。本文作者Richard Welford是企业社会责任亚洲(CSRAsia)的董事,同时也是香港大学企业环境管制计划副主任,长期从事亚太地区社会责任发展研究。本文中,他结合亚太地区发展具体情况,向我们阐述了企业社会责任与亚太地区经济、社会发展之间存在的深刻联系。
Although many countries in the Asia-Pacific region are considered emerging markets for rapid economic growth, many in the region are still at an advanced stage of development and face challenges in such developments as poverty eradication, improvement of national health and standard of living. In the context of globalization, large multinational corporations not only promote economic development in the Asia Pacific region, but also bring about their concept and practice of corporate social responsibility. Richard Welford is a director of corporate social responsibility Asia (CSRAsia) and a deputy director of corporate environmental programs at the University of Hong Kong. He has long been involved in research on social responsibility development in the Asia Pacific region. In this article, he combined with the specific situations in the Asia Pacific region to explain to us the profound relationship between corporate social responsibility and the economic and social development in the Asia Pacific region.
