Resumo: | In Brazil, socially-responsible business has been encouraged by the state. Businesses today must confront ethical challenges regarding their economic, social and environmental dimensions and must relate to governments and communities, even as a way of attaining social legitimacy. However, we must also be aware that it has become common for public powers to appeal to the business sector as a source of financial assistance. The cases we have analyzed – the “Mais Vida” Project developed by the Unilever company in Araçoiaba (PE) and the work done around the Brucutu Mine in São Gonçalo do Rio Baixo (MG) by the Vale do Rio Doce company – were chosen because of the partnerships they have established. Keywords: social responsibility of business, legal obligations, partnerships, community, public power. |

Considerations on socially responsible business within contexts of inequality and exclusionConsiderações sobre a responsabilidade social das empresas em contextos de desigualdade e exclusãoIn Brazil, socially-responsible business has been encouraged by the state.

As empresas hoje enfrentam desafios éticos para a dimensão econômica, ambiental e social nos negócios e precisam se articular com governos e comunidades, até mesmo como forma de buscar legitimidade na sociedade. Porém há que se sublinhar que está tornando-se comum os poderes públicos apelarem para a ajuda financeira de empresas. Os casos analisados – o Projeto Mais Vida desenvolvido pela Unilever em Araçoiaba (PE) e o trabalho feito em torno da Mina de Brucutu em São Gonçalo do Rio Baixo (MG) pela Companhia Vale do Rio Doce – foram escolhidos em função das parcerias estabelecidas.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)2009-10-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/2175-7984.2009v8n15p9910.5007/2175-7984.2009v8n15p99Política & Sociedade; Vol. 8 No. 15 (2009); 99-116Política & Sociedade; Vol. 8 Núm. 15 (2009); 99-116Política & Sociedade; v. 8 n. 15 (2009); 99-1162175-79841677-4140reponame:Política & Sociedade (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/2175-7984.2009v8n15p99/11039Copyright (c) 2009 Política & Sociedadeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKirschner, Ana Maria2022-11-21T14:13:38Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/11795Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politicaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/oai||ernesto.seidl@ufsc.br|| ps@cfh.ufsc.br2175-79841677-4140opendoar:2022-11-21T14:13:38Política & Sociedade (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
