In the highly praised _The Market for Virtue_, David Vogel presents a
clear, balanced analysis of the contemporary corporate social
responsibility (CSR) movement in the United States and Europe. In this
updated paperback edition, Vogel discusses recent CSR initiatives and
responds to new developments in the CSR debate. He asserts that while
the movement has achieved success in improving some labor, human
rights, and environmental practices in developing countries, there are
limits to improving corporate conduct without more extensive and
effective government regulation. Put simply, Vogel believes that there
is a market for virtue, but it is limited by the substantial costs of
socially responsible business behavior. Praise for the cloth edition:
"The definitive guide to what corporate social responsibility can and
cannot accomplish in a modern capitalist economy."Robert B. Reich,
Brandeis University, and former U.S. Secretary of Labor "Vogel raises
a number of excellent points on the present and future of
CSR."Working Knowledge, Harvard Business School "A useful corrective
to the view that CSR alone is the full answer to social
problems."Business Ethics "The study combines sound logic with
illustrative cases, and advances the sophistication of the CSR debate
considerably." John G. Ruggie, Harvard University, co-architect of
UN Global Compact
