Corporate social responsibility and CSR fit as predictors of corporate reputation: a global perspective

Aksak, E. O.Ferguson, M. A.Duman, S. A.2018-04-122018-04-1220160363-8111http://hdl.handle.net/11693/36781This paper reviews the literature for articles that include both the terms corporate social responsibility and reputation in the title and/or abstract. The results of the conceptual analysis reveal that most studies on CSR and reputation focus on practical implications without contributing to the theoretical framework. The authors propose applying institutional theory to enhance the understanding of the relationship between CSR and reputation and to foster public relations theory development. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.EnglishCorporate social responsibilityInstitutional theoryLegitimacyPublic relationsReputationCorporate social responsibility and CSR fit as predictors of corporate reputation: a global perspectiveArticle10.1016/j.pubrev.2015.11.004
