Abstract

The following research aims to identify the key definitions of this with a critical approach, reviewing the advantages and disadvantages of the type of business management.
When implementing and designing strategies, companies must consider the external effects on the social aspects involved in their activity.
Then, to explain the competitive advantage that Corporate Social Responsibility represents, it is determined as a form of management that leads to the redistribution of the surplus of the small and medium-sized company, in how to make better allocations of its resources, leading to greater acceptance and with it to a better positioning.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a new vision of strategic management and corporate ethics of organizations, where technological, economic and cultural change have ended up redefining the relationship they have with their audiences and with the environment. Considering small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) as a transcendental element in the economy and social composition, this work reviews and analyzes the role that CSR can play in the management of its intangibles and in the production of value within this type of business format.
