Abstract

The most important parameters of the markets all over the world have changed in the last years and thus the ways of doing business had to be adapted. International organizations that were standard setters in CSR issues had to adapt their strategies, recommendation and guidelines to fit the new context and to shape up future developments. As OECD and the European Union changed their operational framework, national states as Romania had to readdress the matter of CSR and to rethink the old ways of doing socially responsible practices. This paper addresses these changes and track the strategy for CSR of Romania to highlight the most important points of change.
