Abstract
This chapter provides a critical overview of the multifaceted dimensions of corporate social responsibility (CSR) within contemporary business landscapes. Employing a structured approach, the exploration revolves around three faces of CSR: “The Good,” depicting responsible and ethical conduct; “The Bad,” unveiling potential negative consequences; and “The Ugly,” shedding light on deceptive practices facilitated by corporate and government public relations. This comprehensive literature review spans diverse disciplines, encapsulating the conceptualization of CSR, its positive and negative facets, and the often-overlooked power dynamics and motives steering corporate initiatives. With a global perspective, the study sheds light on the universal implications of CSR practices, revealing the intricate relationships between corporations, stakeholders, and broader societal and environmental contexts.
