Like, Comment, And Share: Distortion Of Information On Facebook, Sungwoo Hong
Global Honors Theses
Social media users all around the globe use Facebook to stay connected with each other, and it is a dominant source of news: “over 63% of users acquire their news from social media” (Schmidt, 2017, p.3035). The connectivity of social media has created unintended consequences that promote or influence creation and dissemination of misinformation. By literature review and using real world example, this research identifies sources and provocation of inaccurate news, and explores how user interaction within social media promotes dissemination of distorted information.

Csr Communication In Kitakyushu, Japan: Multiple Case Study, Kaori Takano
Csr Communication In Kitakyushu, Japan: Multiple Case Study, Kaori Takano
Academic Conference on Good Business
The city of Kitakyushu is located in Fukuoka prefecture, southwestern Japan. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) designated it as one of the four “Green growth” model cities in the world. The city experienced industrial pollution in the 1960s, however, it currently enjoys a reputation for having successful environmental approaches. Because of this significant history, the author speculates that the Kitakyushu business community continues to be vigilant about socially responsible practices and their CSR communication with stakeholders may be more advanced compared to other businesses in Japan.
This multiple case study utilized two traditional data: Interviews and documents. …
Self-Promotion No Longer Leaves A Bad Taste: Ajinomoto’S Csr Activity In Japanese Schools, Kaori Takano
Self-Promotion No Longer Leaves A Bad Taste: Ajinomoto’S Csr Activity In Japanese Schools, Kaori Takano
Academic Conference on Good Business
Generally Japanese society does not value or encourage self-promotion. Therefore, Japanese corporations are generally quiet about corporate social responsibility (CSR). One Japanese multinational manufacturer of seasoning, Ajinomoto, does not fall into this category. Unlike the majority of the Japanese business community, Ajinomoto trumpets their CSR in the public sector. The top Japanese corporations normally choose not to pronounce their CSR, believing that it is not necessary to highlight their CSR activities if the company is basically doing what is considered the “right thing” for society. For this reason, Ajinomoto was selected for study because the case is unusual from cultural …

Social Responsibility Reporting: Evidence From India’S Leading Corporations, Shalini Jain
Academic Conference on Good Business
Abstract
In this article, I examine how 121 leading corporations in India communicate the external relevance of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs/outputs and whether these outputs vary by ownership identity (foreign, government, and family), industry affiliation (environmentally sensitive and consumer proximate), and market orientation (inward and outward). I use content analysis from corporate websites, annual reports, and CSR/Sustainability reports to create a unique database on India. Indicators include issuance of stand-alone CSR/Sustainability reports, participation in GRI, UNGC, Carbon Disclosure Project, and UN Carbon Credits reporting and auditing, social and environmental data and disclosure scores, and CSR/Sustainability awards. My analysis …

This mini-case asks students to explore the issues related to minimum wage laws, corporate social responsibility, HR practices, and the social impact of large global corporations like Walmart. Students are asked to make recommendations to the leadership of Walmart on strategies for moving forward.

Victoria's Little Secret, Joe Lawless
Victoria's Little Secret, Joe Lawless
MICCSR Case Studies
This mini-case outlines a series of articles that ran in Bloomberg outlining the use of child slave labor in the fair trade cotton fields of Burkina Faso that had been used exclusively in Victoria’s Secret products. Giving students and opportunity to develop strategies and tactics that respond to a real-world public relations issue, this case also lets students explore the CSR issues inherent in a firm’s supply chain. Although trying to do the “right thing” Victoria’s Secret got caught up in the certification dilemma that many firms face.
