The term “social responsibility,” originating from the Anglo-Saxon world, must not be identified with the civil responsibility theory, a characteristic of the Roman-Germanic Law methodology. Environmental justice is the accepted term for describing the disproportionate impacts that environmental pollution has on the health and well-being of low-income communities and communities of color as compared with other populations. Environmental justice movement was becoming well-known, a broader analysis of economic development emerged in the form of sustainable development, adding the potential for social indicators to the economic or financial assessment of environmental outcomes. This Article focuses on the gap between where existing legal remedies for environmental justice arguably appear to end, and where the private sector commitment to corporate social responsibility is said to begin. It studies the tenuous link between environmental justice and CSR, and raises questions as to why the principles of environmental justice are not more expressly identified with the social accountability and environmental sustainability tenets of CSR.
