The article studies the “corporate social responsibility” (CSR) notion and offers author’s definition. It marks necessary conditions for development and conduct of CSR by a company. It analyses possibilities of Ukrainian companies on conduct of CSR. It provides examples of CSR realisation by companies in Ukraine. It offers a scheme of the concept of CSR functioning in the economic system of the society, which reflects “worker – company – state” relations.В статье исследовано понятие «корпоративная социальная ответственность» (КСО) и предложено авторское определение.

Human societies benefit from social norms that increase cooperation and support social order. Hence, the understanding of effective mechanisms enforcing norms is crucial. One of such mechanisms is "third-party punishment" (TPP) – a form of social punishment that could be delivered by a third-party, not directly affected by the actions of the norm violator. Previous electrophysiological studies (ERP) reported that perceived violations of norms evoked the medial frontal negativity in third-parties. The current study further probed the link between the medial frontal negativity (MFN) and actual TPP of norm violation, as it was not shown directly before. Participants played a dictator game as third-parties, being able to select different levels of punishment of an unfair violator's decisions. We replicated previous findings and showed the amplitude of the MFN correlated with the intensity of TPP (Fz, r = -0.516, p = 0.034, FCz, r = -0.509; p = 0.037). Overall, our findings further support the direct link between the MFN and the intensity of TPP. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
