AN ASSESSMENT OF SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY PROJECTS IN THE CONTEXT OF SOCIAL STATE

Abstract

This study aimed to provide an account of the transformation of the social state following the enactment of neoliberal policies and the reflection of this transformation on social responsibility projects in Turkey. Employing the document analysis method, the present study examined the education-related social responsibility projects of the six companies about the cooperation in the projects, in attempts to explore whether these projects complied with the 10 high-priority targets related to education designated by Article 4 of SDGs (SDG4), which was enacted in the realm of education under the leadership of the United Nations (UN). In these projects, public institutions were the most common partners (n=13), followed by NGOs (n=5), private sector (n=3), and international institutions (n=1), respectively, whereas there was no cooperation with any institution in the four projects. The results indicated that although the projects provided a social benefit in terms of social development and integration, they remained inadequate in ensuring inclusiveness for all citizens and replacing the services carried out by the social state for the continuity and welfare of the society.
