The chapter focuses on the role of civil society organizations (CSOs) in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). CSOs are conceptualized as one of the key stakeholder groups that contest harmful corporate social and environmental practices and cooperate with corporations to improve their social and environmental performance. The CSOs’ involvement is thus a necessary condition for the legitimation of CSR activities. This chapter reviews how CSR has changed over the last decades, and how these changes have shaped the involvement of CSOs with CSR. It also provides an overview of multiple roles CSOs play in various forms of CSR.
