Contributions from leading scholars in public relations, organizational communication, reputation management, marketing and management show how theories of discourse, internal communication, cognitive psychology, reputation and rhetoric enrich our understanding of CSR communication and how this influences the way organizations should be managed.
- Charles Conrad, Texas A&M University
“An impressive, accessible volume including writings by a significant group of international scholars and practitioners. CSR communication is clearly and usefully delineated in relation to full array of traditional organization studies.”
- Stan Deetz, University of Colorado, Boulder
“A handbook marks a significant moment in the development of a field. Ihlen, Bartlett, and May have done justice to that moment with a well organized and stimulating synthesis that provides a sound foundation for future CSR studies.”
- David McKie, University of Waikato Management School
“The most comprehensive book on CSR communication yet. The editors have indeed provided 'the definitive collection for CSR communication' drawn from an outstanding team of international and cross-disciplinary contributors.”
- Anne Gregory, Leeds Metropolitan University
