Globalization is especially important as technology increases and we can travel halfway across the world in less than a day. Cultural interaction is at an all-time high, and that is only going to increase. In general, engineering seems to be a major for primarily first world people….

Proponents of CSR, for example, view it as a vehicle fortransforming businesses to create shared economic, social and environmental value forthemselves and their stakeholders. In contrast, some skeptics from inside of the business worldview CSR as an intrusion on free market principles (see [6] for an early and famous example).And critics of capitalism in general argue that CSR
