- Abstract
- There is a long history of business trying to positively impact society, especially in company towns and the paternalistic business practices of the 1800s and early 1900s. Article is about just one topic where there is rapidly growing interest and implications for business practice: what should be the role of business in society. This is a very important question because the world is full of problems: social problems, such as education, health, nutrition, housing, clean water, discrimination, economic problems such as unequal opportunity, low income, and many others. Awareness of these problems has been increasing especially over recent decades.(fragment of text)
