“Wayne Visser's The Age of Responsibility elegantly and persuasively
demonstrates the limits and failures of traditional CSR and also the kinds of reforms
needed to create conditions for genuine corporate responsibility. Rich with insight,
information and analyses, and highly readable for its excellent writing and poignant
stories, the book is a crucial contribution to understanding where we are with CSR and
what we need to do to move forward.”
Joel Bakan, author of The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power (book
and documentary film)
“Amongst the advocates of CSR as an innovative management approach, Wayne Visser
is a well-known voice. This new book states more clearly than most why CSR should not be
dismissed, but would benefit from some serious rethinking.”
- Michael Blowfied, Senior Research Fellow at Smith School of Enterprise and the
Environment, Oxford University and author of Corporate Responsibility
