• The Case for Strategic Corporate Social Responsibility in Developing Countries (2007, background): “…side, limited CSR advocacy and awareness raising, limited regulatory capacity, and nascent community organizations, coupled with traditional macroeconomic constraints that serve to divert company attention to issues of basic economic viability (Belal 2001; Fulop et al. 2000; Jamali et al. 2006).”
• A Longitudinal Study of Corporate Social Disclosures in a Developing Economy (2011, background): “Similar findings were reported in the case of Nigeria (Disu and Gray 1998) and Bangladesh ( Belal 2001 ).”
• Reporting intangible assets: Voluntary disclosure practices of top emerging market companies (2011, background): “This is especially true as regards corporate social, environmental, and other nonfinancial value drivers, such as IA (Belal, 2001).”
• Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Theory and Practice in a Developing Country Context (2007, background): “Belal (2001) notes for example that most of the CSR studies conducted so far have been in the context of developed countries such as Western Europe, the U.S.A., and Australia and that we still know too little about practices in ex-colonial, smaller, and emerging countries.”
• Sustainability Reporting and the Theory of Planned Behaviour (2015, result): “The need for environmental training was also apparent in a number of other studies (e.g. Medley, 1997; Wycherley, 1997; Perry and Sheng, 1999; Belal, 2001; Lodhia, 2003; Sahay, 2004).”
• CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY DISCLOSURE IN MALAYSIA: AN ANALYSIS OF ANNUAL REPORTS OF KLSE LISTED COMPANIES * (2003, methodology): “Only one instance of ‘bad news’ disclosure was found (Belal, 2001).”
• The absence of corporate social responsibility reporting in Bangladesh (2011, result): “Specifically, previous studies (Belal, 2001; Imam, 2000) indicated that there is a low level of CSR reporting in Bangladesh and this is the field of study for this research.”
• Globalisation, governance, accountability and the natural resource ‘curse’: Implications for socio-economic growth of oil-rich developing countries (2019, background): “Such MNCs’ actions support the argument that ODCs are vulnerable and exploitable (Belal, 2013, 2015).”
• CSR in an emerging country: a content analysis of CSR reports of listed companies (2011, background): “The number of China-based CSRRs has increased exponentially (Brubaker, 2008). In 2006, a total of 32 listed companies published their CSRRs. Considering the CSRR (2006) is published in 2007 (companies need time to collect data and compile the report), several occurrences may have contributed to the ”
• Corporate social responsibility disclosures and earnings quality: Are they a reflection of managers’ opportunistic behavior? (2015, background): “Belal (2001) reported that a significant portion of the CSR ‐ related disclosures involved employee ‐ related information.”
• Motivations for an organisation within a developing country to report social responsibility information: Evidence from Bangladesh (2008, unknown): “…exerted on organisations within developing countries in relation to their social and environmental performance and related accountability (however, see Belal 2001; De Villiers and Van Staden, 2006; Hegde, Bloom, and Fuglister, 1997; Jaggi and Zhao, 1996; Teoh and Thong, 1984; and Tsang, 1998).”
• The Effect of Ownership Structure on Corporate Social Responsibility: Empirical Evidence from Korea (2011, background): “( Belal 2001 ). However, recent studies pointed out that corporations elsewhere in the world other than Europe and the U.S., have recently adopted CSR practices (Chapple and Moon 2005; Matten and Moon 2008).”
• Corporate Social Reporting Practice: Evidence from Listed Companies in Bangladesh (2009, background): “Cultural life of Bangladesh is characterised by the existence of strong family values, powerful elite groups, and widespread corruption (Belal, 2001).”
• The Role of Normative CSR‐Promoting Institutions in Stimulating CSR Disclosures in Developing Countries (2018, methodology): “…countries have paid more attention to human related themes as compared to community and environment related activities (e.g. Disu & Gray, 1998; Belal, 2001; Gao et al., 2005; Haniffa & Cooke, 2005; Ratanajongkol et al., 2006), while they paid considerably less attention to environmental…”
