This paper discusses the concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and its workability. The analysis on CSR is conducted on three levels: at the first level it is assessed if the plain self-commitment of the firms is enough to achieve it. At the other two levels it is considered if CSR can be reached through a review of Company Law, and, eventually, how. In that perspective, two models of corporations and the related interests will be taken into consideration: the stakeholder-model and the shareholder-oriented model.
