CSR itself is arguably not a new concept...will see how it evolves. Like the poll idea. Hi Fabian, yes, I agree that fads can become common practice.

However, I also think that while CSR is trendy (the economic downturn notwithstanding), I'm not sure how many companies view it as an integral part of what they do...or see themselves as true corporate citizens...with duties and obligations...besides profit.
