ORIGIN OF CSR
• The fundamentals of CSR rest on the fact that not only public policy but even corporates should be responsible enough to address social issues
• Known as social responsibility (SR), the modern era of CSR started in the 1930s
• The attempts to define CSR grew significantly in the 1960s and became more specific in the 1970s

DEFINITIONS
• Howard Bowen - American economist (1953) was one of the first authors who attempted to define CSRAccording to Bowen - CSR is the policies, the decisions, and the actions that align with the goals and values of society
• Archie B. Carroll. Professor Emeritus, University of Georgia - (1979) thought that the economic component should be included in the definition of CSR. He defined it as - “The social responsibility of business encompasses the economic, legal, ethical, and discretionary expectations that society has of organizations at a given point in time”

EVOLUTION OF CSR IN INDIA
The history of CSR in India has its four phases:
• The First Phase: (pre-industrialization period, which lasted till 1850 - CSR motivated by charity and philanthropy)
• The Second Phase: 1850-1960(during the independence movement - CSR for India’s social development)
• The Third Phase: (1960–1980 - CSR under the paradigm of the mixed economy)
• The Fourth Phase: (1980 - present)

The First Phase: (pre-industrialization period, which lasted till 1850 - CSR motivated by charity and philanthropy)
• Charity and philanthropy were the main drivers of CSR• wealthy merchants shared a part of their wealth with the
wider society by way of setting up temples for a religious cause
• change in approach with the arrival of colonial rule in India from the 1850s onwards

The Second Phase: (during the independence movement – CSR for India’s social development)1850-1960
• Mahatma Gandhi introduced the notion of "trusteeship", • according to this notion - industry leaders had to manage
their wealth so as to benefit the common man• Under his influence businesses established trusts for schools
and colleges and also helped in setting up training and scientific institutions
• The heads of the firms largely aligned the activities of their trusts with Gandhi‘s reform programmes
• These programmes included activities that sought in particular the abolition of untouchability, women‘s empowerment and rural development

The Third Phase: (1960–1980 - CSR under the paradigm of the mixed economy)
• emergence of Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) and laws relating labour and environmental standards
• The policy of industrial licensing, high taxes and restrictions on the private sector led to corporate malpractices
• This led to enactment of legislation regarding corporate governance, labour and environmental issues
• PSUs were set up by the state to ensure suitable distribution of resources
• public sector was effective only to a certain limited extent - shift of expectation from the public to the private sector and their active involvement in the socio-economic development of the country became absolutely necessary
