IGI GLOBAL: Investigating Directors’ Accountability and Promoting Corporate Social Responsibility

 

New scientific monograph on director responsibility and corporate social responsibility

In December 2025, the international publishing house IGI Global published a book entitled Investigating Directors’ Accountability and Promoting Corporate Social Responsibility, co-edited by Dr. Maja Pucelj, Dr. Rado Bohinc and Mag. Anita Hrast from EMUNI, ZRS Koper and IRDO. In addition to numerous other international authors, the book also includes contributions from Dr. Bojan Tičar and Gal Pastirk, also colleagues of the Law Institute.    

The role of company directors is under scrutiny more than ever before. Stakeholders expect companies to be more transparent, ethical and proactive in their actions. Directors play a key role in this, as their decisions shape strategies that align business objectives with social and environmental expectations, directly impacting the long-term sustainability of the company and the trust of stakeholders.

The book  Exploring the Responsibility of Directors in Promoting Corporate Social Responsibility  comprehensively addresses the legal, ethical, and strategic responsibilities of directors in integrating corporate social responsibility (CSR) into core business practices. The authors analyze contemporary governance models, accountability mechanisms, and the consequences that directors face when CSR is not adequately integrated into companies’ strategic decision-making.

The publication offers in-depth insights into current issues such as risk reduction, the use of data analytics, the functioning of business markets, and the impact of digital technologies on socially responsible business. It represents a valuable source of knowledge for business owners, managers, policymakers, academics, researchers, and anyone interested in modern, responsible, and sustainable management of organizations.
