Corporate  governance  is  a  controversial  topic  for  academics  and  managers. Despite  of  the  great  number  of  studies  on  this  issue,  there  is  still  an  open debate  on  the  best  practices  on  Corporate  Social  Responsibility  (CSR),  its influence  on  performance  and  the  conception  of  CSR  as  a  strategy  or something even more important that should be in the very essence and nature
of any organization.
This course seeks to expose the state of the art on CSR, to indicate the main research gaps and define research opportunities on this topic.
