Launch text on « The social responsibility of socio-economic agents »
The charter project for human responsibilities in the 21st century has been presented by the Alliance workgroup on solidarity Socio-Economy - Lille, December 2002.
Résumé :
This workgroup of the Alliance considers the growth of economic interdependences and social responsibility. Today, the most powerful economic actors (governments, regions and multinational companies) benefit extensively from the growth of economic interdependences without paying the due compensation that is, taking on greater responsibilities as regards society and the environment. They recognize the interdependences of globalized society only when they swing in their favour.
