The V4 Countries and Justice and Responsibility in the Activities of Multinational Enterprises

Summary/Abstract: In the era of internationalization of enterprises and increasing division of the world into countries of the rich North and the poor South, the ideas of responsibility and justice in business operations are permanently present. The objectives of this study are as follows: the characteristics of the role of transnational corporations in raising the level of the stratification of society in the rich North and the poor South and an attempt to develop recommendations for the V4 countries as for the development of corporate social responsibility, responsible investment and fair trade. This paper (used methods: analysis of source texts and statistical data, the descriptive method) presents global and European trends and developments in this area, and lessons learned for the V4 countries. The study covers the period 2004–2015, which will allow to analyze the phenomena, both before and during the economic crisis. Developing social responsibility, responsible investment and promoting the fair trade movement in Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia can contribute to the initiation of changes to the rules governing the world today and starting a new era in fairer trade on the international level. The proposal is to increase cooperation of the V4 countries in the area of the described processes in order to fight against illegal labor migration which is increasingly taking place in the European Union.
