Fine Young Criminal’s Corporate Social Responsibility:On the Virtues of the Wicked and the Common Good Performed by Egoists

In the paper the authors conduct a thought experiment and a conceptual analysis in order to investigate CSR as being done by criminal businesses, and draw some lessons from it in terms of the change in concept of CSR from a value- positive to a value-neutral concept. Also, a revision of the model for solving CSR cases is done by use of the analogy between CSR problem solving and the concept and procedure of “inventing practical things”. The paper identifies CSR as a set of practices, and a possible analogy with “inventing” procedure as a benchmark for identification and solving CSR issues in terms of CSR as an integrative, holistic, and value neutral concept, meaning that CSR ought to be understood as an integral part of any business “being done properly”, and because of that any advertised, deceptive, illusory CSR, or understood as “something additional” to the core business seems to be misguided. The paper tries to show that CSR is value neutral, and in addition that it is an integral, implicit, and at the same time manifested element of a business being done properly.
