Abstract
[Resumen]: La finalidad de este trabajo es establecer un marco teórico para entender la responsabilidad social corporativa desde
la perspectiva de la teoría institucional. La responsabilidad social corporativa está en aumento en Jordania. Las empresas jordanas
continúan enfrentándose a unas extremadamente desafiantes condiciones institucionales, incluyendo guerras, inestabilidad política, y
conflictos religiosos y étnicos. Este estudio usa la teoría institucional para entender los factores que hacen posible una responsabilidad
social corporativa en el sector químico en Jordania. Se postula que las presiones normativas, coercitivas y miméticas en un entorno
institucionalizado podrían influir positivamente la predisposición de los gestores hacia la responsabilidad social corporativa. Para
comprobar esta teoría se llevó a cabo una investigación basada en un cuestionario. Los datos para medir las presiones institucionales
a las que se enfrentan las empresas se obtuvieron de informantes clave de cada empresa, incluyendo al CEO. Se desarrolló un modelo
Logit, testeado con SPSS. El resultado más impactante es negativo: las regulaciones gubernamentales (presión coercitiva) tienen un
impacto negativo en la propensión de las organizaciones hacia la responsabilidad social corporativa. Sorprendentemente, las presiones
miméticas no tienen una influencia significativa, mientras que las presiones normativas son las que individualmente tienen una mayor
influencia en la adopción de políticas de responsabilidad social corporativa.
[Abstrac]: The purpose of this article is to set out a framework for understanding corporate social responsibility from the perspective of institutional theory. Corporate social responsibility is on the rise in Jordan. Jordanian companies continue to face extremely challenging institutional conditions including wars, political instability, religious and ethnic conflicts. This study uses institutional theory to understand the factors that enable corporate social responsibility in the chemical sector in Jordan. It posits that normative, coercive, and mimetic pressures existing in an institutionalized environment could positively influence managerial predisposition toward corporate social responsibility. Survey based research was carried out to test our theory. Data to measure the institutional pressures that firms face and their corporate social responsibility were collected from key informants from each Company, including the CEO. A Logit Model was developed and tested using SPSS. The most striking result is a negative one: government regulations have negative impact on organizations’ propensity to corporate social responsibility. Surprisingly, mimetic forces have no significant influence, while normative forces were the single strongest incentive to adopt corporate social responsibility policies.
