Abstract

After many countries abandoned part of their economic and social roles, interest in corporate social responsibility has become an urgent and necessary need for what goes back to society and the companies themselves. Many studies have been conducted linking social responsibility and corporate financial performance, including a positive, negative, or neutral relationship. Against this background, this study aims to highlight the importance of corporate social responsibility by summarizing a number of empirical studies that linked corporate social responsibility to financial performance through knowledge of theoretical concepts and methods of measuring both variables and then defining a comprehensive conceptual model that illustrates the dimensions of this relationship which can A number of future researchers benefit from it.
