Much of the writing in
The Journal of Corporate
Citizenship
over the last few years has been concerned with stakeholder
engagement, social partnership building, accountability, and reporting. To date,
however, there has been little discussion of what comes next in potential
transformational efforts to build a more secure, peaceful and ecologically
sustainable world — or the corporate roles in building that world. This issue
asks the question: What is the role of business in contributing to global peace
and security over the long haul? As can readily be seen by the variety of papers
and topics in the issue, the answer to that question is far from easy or simple,
and each person who approaches the topic does so from a different perspective.
Nonetheless, there are common threads and themes that arise when we begin
thinking seriously about how businesses can contribute to peace and security and
to what we are calling, after Polanyi,
the next great transformation. Clearly, there are significant signs that transformation is needed
in the world today.
