Hay (Harvard Law School), Stavins (Harvard U.'s John F. Kennedy School of Government), and Vietor (Harvard Business School) present the proceedings of an eponymous scholarly workshop from December of 2003 in which participants examined the advisability and possibility of corporate social responsibility in the environmental sphere. Three papers explore the legal, economic, and business perspectives, with each followed by two commentaries and summary of discussion that followed the presentations at the workshop.
