Dear Viswanath, Corporate social responsibility is not a movement as I understand it. There was a wide movement from the people affected by corporates but that was on corporate accountability. For example 'students for Bhopal' brought factsheets on TATAs and Dow chemicals and have been fighting on this constantly. And as movements as people who ask for accountability from the state, I feel we as people should ask accountability and transparency from the corporates too. Because for me they are institutions, which is functional in the society. And 'corporate social responsibility' is just a term, but not a movement. How do you define movement, I for the purpose in this list use it for socio political movements. Rafeek PS. As this is becoming a dialogue between me and you, better chat it off the group I feel. Because of increasing mails and so and so.
