• W786391625 abstract "AbstractThe term Responsibility in spite of its common sensical use, has a value-loaded meaning in domain of Ethics. The most widely accepted view is that there are four dimensions of corporate social responsibility - economic, legal, ethical and philanthropic. Aim in this paper is to understand whether we use term responsibility in its ethical sense when we discuss these four dimensions of corporate social responsibility.Keywords: Responsibility, Collective responsibility, Ethics.IntroductionMany prescriptive norms dominate business ethics texts in context of Corporate Social Responsibility. Corporates have a wide range of responsibilities towards a number of interests including themselves. They have responsibilities towards shareholders, workers, consumers, creditors and suppliers, local community, future generation and society in large. It does not create any confusion as far as issue is limited in domain of prescriptive arena. When it falls in to ethical discussion, why Corporates have responsibility?The primary issue involved in discussion of Corporate Social responsibility is about corporate intention and its agency for moral accountability. There is a whole lot of discussion against corporate intention as an individual moral agent. This argument, corporate cannot have any social responsibility as a moral agent, was first posed by Milton Friedman1. He gave some strong arguments based on individual responsibility involving intemationality in moral action which corporate lacks in its action.Assertions of responsibility can mean a number of different things. We might be making judgment of someone's character implying that it can be trusted to act responsibly. We might refer to a person's responsibilities, as expressed by responsibilities in my job are... or Mary has a lot of We might mean that someone was responsible for bringing something about. But these responses do not take us towards a satisfactory answer to question What do we mean when we talk about To move forward our understanding of responsible action we need to know who is responsible and for what? The question Who is has both practical and theoretical aspects. As a practical question, it aims to identify responsible party: causally. When asked theoretically it aims to establish what sorts of entities are properly ascribed responsibilities? Can only individuals be properly ascribed responsibilities, or can organizations also be held responsible? If latter, then what sorts of organizations and under what conditions? The theoretical question hinges on issues about rationality and agency.Thinker like Milton Freedman is very skeptic about responsibility of corporate on above point intention by posing his argument that the discussions of 'social responsibilities of business' are notable for their analytical looseness and lack of rigor, what does it mean to say that 'business' has responsibilities? Only people can have responsibilities. A corporation is an artificial person and in this sense may have artificial responsibilities but business as a whole cannot be said to have responsibilities, even in this vague sense1.Philosophers who model corporate responsibility on individual responsibility appeal to conceptions of action and intention. Corporate acts and intentions embody acts and intentions of members of corporation. The main problem facing this account of corporate moral responsibility lies in dependence of corporate moral identity on individual agency. Even if corporations embody intentions of their members, it does not necessarily follow that corporations rather than their members are morally responsible. It begs question whether corporations perform acts, or only their, rather than purely, responsibility.But, unlike its two more purely individualistic counterparts, it does not associate either causal responsibility or blameworthiness with discrete individuals or locate source of moral responsibility in free will of individual moral agents. …" @default.
