“…Previous articles in this journal have investigated sustainability as a response to the Holy Father's appeal (e.g., Imanaka, Prussia, & Alexis, 2017;Kennedy & Santos, 2017). Our results suggest that while sustainability is a solution, MNEs can be most successful in implementing it by partnering with other NFPs rather than by doing it themselves or with other MNEs.…”

Responding to Pope Francis's appeals in Laudato si' and to societal pressures, multinational enterprises (MNEs; Dunning, 1977) are increasingly searching for ways to structure demands for corporate social responsibility (CSR). Previous literature, however, suggests that the positive effects of CSR initiatives are not certain; moreover, alliance-based CSR remains an understudied area. Therefore, we propose a model based on a "matched" alliance approach to increase the efficacy of, and positive response to, CSR initiatives. We argue that MNEs increase the legitimacy and/or business-process efficiency of CSR initiatives by partnering with not-for-profit (NFP; Schwenk, 1990) organizations in alliances that "match" common objectives with complementary capabilities, which in turn results in positive responses to CSR initiatives.
