A Constructivist View on Business and Society
It is a pleasure to announce the next research seminar of the CBS Cluster in Business and Society (CBS2) which will take a constructivist perspective to the topic. The two papers presented will respectively look at the construction of the “business/environment dichotomy” (Lise Backer) and the construction of “CSR in the business press” (Mette Morsing / Roy Langer). Both papers are available on demand.
