Abstract (EN): This is an introductory chapter in which the concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) is introduced and the fight against corruption and responsible tax behaviour are presented as CSR issues. The present-day importance of corruption and taxation for citizens explaining why the two issues under examination came to the fore is also discussed. The view of the corporation and its role in modern societies upheld in this book is succinctly presented and the implications of such a view for the conceptualizations of corporate practices such as the ones explored here are briefly discussed. The purposes of the book and its structure are presented. © 2021, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.
