The topic of this thesis is about CSR dilemmas, and the main objective of the study is to research the CSR dilemmas in China based on the analysis of data. The study adopts qualitative research methods and is constructed by qualitatively analyzing 40 data articles. The 40 data articles are the journal articles coming from the Database of Chinese Academic Journals from the year 2005 to 2008. This study is mainly constructed by two phases of literature review. The first phase of literature review presents the theoretical background of my study and the second phase of literature review is focused on analyzing 40 data articles to study the CSR dilemmas in China.
The results demonstrate that there are lots of CSR dilemmas existing in China. On the basis of data article analysis, the CSR dilemmas in China can be classified into four categories. They are the dilemmas coming from corporation themselves, the dilemmas coming from government side, the dilemmas rooted in the society and the other kinds of dilemmas. Under each category, there are several themes addressing the specific behavior of CSR dilemmas in China. Furthermore, the result also presents that some CSR dilemmas in China have their corresponding theoretical framework in first phase of literature review of my study, and some CSR dilemmas in China possess typical Chinese characteristics.
