Abstract
This paper outlines a viewpoint that distinguishes Consumer Social Responsibility from Ethical Consumerism and provides normative guidance as to how companies can work to make consumers more socially responsible. Although not a primary research piece the paper builds heavily on Devinney, Auger and Eckhardt (2010), The Myth of the Ethical Consumer (Cambridge).
