A Microeconomic Model of a Corporate Social Responsibility Problem

摘要

One of the key parts of management theory is a strategic management. We can find many opinions that strategic management theory should be connected with an economic theory. There suggestions revealed in the beginning of the nineties. Many scientists say that the theory of strategic management could be modelled by simple economic models. The purpose of this attitude is not a making of an alternative scientific paradigm. They also do not want to change main methods used in management theory. There models should support and strengthen current pieces of knowledge in the strategic management. By using model there is a great opportunity to give more logical consistency and more precise list of the theory's assumptions. We summarise main arguments in favour and against using economics models in strategic management theory. Then we use modelling in describing of a corporate social responsibility problem. We describe a choice of a corporation to produce goods with and without abide by corporate social production standards. Then we make conclusion and discussion of results.
