From this year's Call for Submissions:

The SIM Division is a research community actively examining business ethics, stakeholder engagement and relationships, social entrepreneurship, environmental management, base-of-the-pyramid activities, corporate responsibility, workplace diversity, corporate governance, business-government relations, corporate political strategy, corruption, and corporate philanthropy, among other topics. SIM Division members engage in theory building and theory testing to understand the impacts, interactions, institutional settings, and issues that shape managerial and organizational decision-making. SIM Division members seek to understand responsible behavior and contributions (or lack thereof) to the greater good at the individual, stakeholder, organizational, and trans-organizational levels. We also seek to understand how stakeholders and societies define responsible organizational behavior and how such definitions change over time. Further, we study international impacts with regard to whether, how, and under what conditions managerial, organizational, and trans-organizational responses to social concerns vary based on national and local context, customs, traditions, and beliefs.
