Abstract

This chapter provides background information on Finland as a country and discusses the Nordic traditions, such as the welfare state system, as shapers of the institutional and cultural context for CSR in Finland. The three central elements of the book, origins, characteristics, and trends of CSR in Finland are introduced. Furthermore, the meaning of CSR in the Finnish context and in the Finnish language is shortly reviewed.
