Discussing classic and cutting-edge research in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and its communication practices, this book critically examines key issues and debates of corporate social responsibility communication in global contexts.This book conceptualizes CSR communication as a reflective practice anchored in organizational values, identity, and purpose, yet responsive to continually shifting societal expectations. It draws on current case studies to explain why reflective CSR communication has never been more crucial to help organizations articulate their evolving roles in society. Organized into three sections – core concepts, a framework for reflective practice, and applications in areas such as employee relations, crisis communication, and the rapidly developing terrain of artificial intelligence – it highlights how organizations can tell their CSR stories authentically to create ethical brand identities that can continue to resonate with their stakeholders.The book will be of interest to advanced students, educators, researchers, and practitioners pursuing advanced credentials who are interested in the intersections of CSR and strategic communication, public relations, corporate communication, and communication management.
