Second, many corporations view CSR as an effective defensive strategy against powerful activist NGOs (such as Greenpeace) that have taken to using online agitation, boycotts, and other means to “blackmail” targeted corporations into acceding to the activists’ demands. The more CSR a company can point to, the less such efforts will succeed – or even be mounted.
其次，许多公司都把企业社会责任作为一种有效的防御性战略，以此来应付那些非政府组织（诸如绿色和平组织）——这些人利用网络煽动，抵制和其他各种方法来迫使企业满足他们的要求。而企业越是承担起社会责任，那些非政府组织的要挟就越不可能成功——甚至反过来被企业所利用。
