This theory is put forward,and quickly caused the widespread attention of various disciplines. With the transition of the planned economy to marketeconomy in our country, most of the enterprises in China will still refuse to take care of the social responsibility and a series ofproblems become the biggest contradiction in China＇s economic development and social development. So it is necessary forChina to slove these problems.展开更多

Companies are under pressure from the stakeholders to engage in the line of social, environmental, and economical responsibilities. Until now, no research has been conducted on CSR performance using a dataset from the telecommunication industry in Sudan. Hence, this paper has investigated the strategic importance of CSR in a Sudan telecommunication company （Sudatel）. In doing so, the paper has sought to understand whether the concept of CSR programs is featured in the company＇s culture and strategic plans or whether the management of the company is highly committed to CSR programs. Telecommunication companies are expanding in economic size. Considered as the largest industry in the world in terms of employment and the fastest growing area in business, there are many social and economic benefits and opportunities that can be created through investment in the telecommunication infrastructure, which has the potential to enhance sustainable development, especially for developing countries. To investigate this problem, a qualitative case study methodology is used to collect and analyze the data. Results indicate that the CSR concept is part of the company＇s strategic plan and given high commitment from the top management.展开更多

The present research is a conceptual study. The data were collected to analyze the entrepreneurship theories in Saudi Arabia＇s context. The data related to entrepreneurship spirit, perception of society towards entrepreneurship, and other macroeconomic indicators are collected from different research journals, websites of different corporate houses, and government sources to analyze the social entrepreneurship theories, such as failure thesis, interdependence theories, welfare state theory, supply-side theory, entrepreneurship education, etc.. The theoretical hypothesis of interdependence theory, entrepreneurship spirit, and general education and the theoretical analysis of this paper in light of Saudi Arabia are in line with the theory. But the hypothesis generated out of failure thesis theory, welfare state theory, entrepreneurship education, and individualistic and collective society culture is not in line with these theories.展开更多

文摘Corporate social responsibility （CSR） has received a lot of attention in the last few decades, from the economic responsibility to generate profits, to the discretionary responsibility to meet extra activities that society finds desirable. Companies are under pressure from the stakeholders to engage in the line of social, environmental, and economical responsibilities. Until now, no research has been conducted on CSR performance using a dataset from the telecommunication industry in Sudan. Hence, this paper has investigated the strategic importance of CSR in a Sudan telecommunication company （Sudatel）.
