Abstract

This chapter discusses the policies pertaining to CSR and their implementation in different countries in comparison to Indian CSR. Precise mandate of CSR is to achieve better management of all the stakeholders and to ensure greater accountability. It may be based upon philanthropy or inclined towards transparency, ethics or community good. Environment, social and economic dimensions are the foremost priorities of almost all the nations, but main focus areas vary depending upon the national history, policies, laws etc. along with people's preferences. The implementation of CSR is also affected by the active or passive role being performed by the government. The thrust of the chapter will be to analyse the role of the government, its goals, priorities and policies, which go in a long way to impact CSR. The legislative mandate of CSR and its implementation in India will be analysed specifically, in comparison to USA and Norway, which have better CSR rankings than India. Keywords: CSR, policies, implementation, government, ranking.
