But some enterprises focus only on the economic benefit, turned a deaf ear to the expectations of society, which bring about unbalance between the expectations of society, the enterprises’ ability to fulfill responsibilities and the enterprises" wish to fulfill responsibilities. Although some enterprises have the ability to fulfill responsibilities, they do not want to meet the society’s expectation. There are also some enterprises do not understand the connotation of corporate social responsibility, companies in China is thus formed the chaos about the corporate social responsibility.In connection with the reality of enterprise society responsibility, started from the concept and connotation of corporate social responsibility firstly, analyzed the related theories from Domestic and Foreign, summarized what is corporate social responsibility and what the corporate social responsibility include.
