Universities are increasingly responding to this demand by incorporating USR principles and sustainable development in their practices and daily activities.

To achieve this goal, qualitative comparative analysis was applied to the case of the Spanish higher education system.

In order to respond to the international calls for incorporating social responsibility principles into their culture, Spanish universities adopt different strategies that affect the four areas that shape their organizational scope. La Responsabilidad Social Universitaria (RSU) es una estrategia de dirección de la universidad que proponen tanto organismos internacionales, por ejemplo, la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU) y la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO), como nacionales para que se incluya en la declaración de la misión de cada universidad. Las universidades vienen dando respuesta a esta demanda, incorporando los principios de RSU y de desarrollo sostenible en su día a día. El trabajo que aquí se presenta tuvo como objetivo establecer el perfil o los perfiles estratégicos a los que responden las universidades que se posicionan como socialmente responsables en la declaración institucional de su misión. Para ello se utilizó el método del análisis cualitativo comparativo. La aplicación empírica se centró en el estudio del sistema universitario español. Los hallazgos confirmaron la hipótesis de partida sobre la existencia de diferentes patrones, por lo que fue posible concluir que no hay una única manera de introducir la RSU en las universidades, sino que son varias las estrategias en los cuatro ámbitos de su actuación que siguen las universidades españolas para dar respuesta a las llamadas internacionales de incorporar la responsabilidad social en su quehacer. 2021-08-06 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_empresarial/article/view/5816 10.18845/te.v15i3.5816 spa https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_empresarial/article/view/5816/5588 application/pdf Escuela de Administración de Empresas.

University Social Responsibility (USR) is a strategic management approach whose introduction in universities’ mission statement is encouraged by international organizations (e.g., United Nations (UN) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)), as well as by public administrations. Universities are increasingly responding to this demand by incorporating USR principles and sustainable development in their practices and daily activities. This study aimed to identify the strategic profile of socially responsible universities (based on their institutional mission statement). To achieve this goal, qualitative comparative analysis was applied to the case of the Spanish higher education system. The findings confirm the initial intuition about the heterogeneous nature of the strategic patterns followed by Spanish universities. In order to respond to the international calls for incorporating social responsibility principles into their culture, Spanish universities adopt different strategies that affect the four areas that shape their organizational scope. |
