The Trend of Corporate Social Responsibi...

It is an honor to take place the third-year Jean Monnet Chair conference at Tamkang University in Taipei.
The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has a comprehensive content. CSR has become a widespread topic in business and public discussion. CSR covers interests of companies, consumers and
stakeholders. Responsibility aspects have already been integrated into the strategic management in many companies.
First of all, thanks to the EU’s cofounding for this international conference. CSR is currently a global issue. The EU has actively engaged in the CSR since 1995 not only through its reform of the company
law and financial market law, but also through raising awareness and understanding of CSR among stakeholders and the general public.
CSR has become a more important issue after the global financial crisis in 2008. The EU published a new policy on CSR in 2011. Enterprises have to behave themselves to integrate social, environmental,
ethical and human rights concerns into their business operations and core strategy in close collaboration with their stakeholders in order to fully meet their social responsibility.
The German legal system is a model of the continental legal system and has a great influence in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. The interaction between the EU and Germany is increasingly close due to the Germany’s membership and the loyalty to the EU. The EU’s CSR has an indirect influence on the three countries by the linkage with the German legal system.
It is a great pleasure and honorable to have the opportunity of sharing the CSR practices from Japan, Korea and Taiwan. There are seven papers related to the CSR practice in Japan, Korea and Taiwan under aspects of corporation law, labor protection and consumer protection.
The EU plays a global actor for a long time. Trade is an important instrument for global governance and implementing the European value.
The EU has an exclusive competence for the common trade policy. The EU has recently concluded comprehensive free trade agreements with most trade partners. This type of free trade agreement is so-called new generation trade agreement. The new generation trade agreement also
includes CSR value. Another five papers will be presented CSR under the aspect of the global governance.
