Nominator's project description

Professor Devinney's field of research is the role of the social responsibility of corporations. This research is aimed at examining the nexus between the individual and their values and the activities in which they engage, as well as the activities of managers and corporations. A major problem with the study of individual values and intentions is that survey instruments only very weakly relate to actual beliefs and behaviour. Utilizing unique and new methods, Professor Devinney examines the social, economic and political value structures of societies, comparing them to specific actions of the individual. The approach also serves to provide a single benchmark as to which social, political and economic issues are valued by a population and how much they will pay to achieve these outcomes. In Germany, Professor Devinney continues his research on "Consumer Social Responsibility and Individual Social Valuation".
