CSR in Tourism Industry Md. Abdul Hamid1 Nowadays Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a recurrently pronounced terminology. There is enough scope of ambiguity also in ‘meaning’ of this expression. Generally, the corporate world and researchers emphasize on different focal points. Instead of such vagueness, certainly there are affirmative something in the whole process.
