CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN ITALY: ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF A NON-EXPLICITLY-EXISTENT SYSTEM
Download This ArticleAbstract
The greatest distinctions between corporate governance practices around the world appear to result from differences in law and not from differences in recommendations that emanate from the types of codes adopted. With the evolution of the concept of Corporate Governance the area of connections with the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility has become more and more wide. The possible way to separate ownership and control, so the corporate governance in the private sector of Italian economic system, has not been based on a unique model but on a set of different models for the different kind of enterprises involved. This paper analyses the connection between corporate governance and corporate social responsibility focusing on the Italian case where, since the system of corporate governance has never been clearly defined, the current outcome shows a unique system that well incorporates both concepts.
