Abstract

This chapter addresses issues in corporate social responsibility and its reporting through social and environmental management accounting. Whilst most research on this topic discusses the role of disclosure and relies on legitimacy or stakeholder theory, this chapter endeavours to bring welfare economics into the discussion so as to understand issues raised by the measurement of social and the environmental externalities organisational activity can generate. Building on welfare economics also enables to highlight issues in social and environmental standard-setting.
