The findings of this study are in agreement with the literature identified from different countries. This study related to the developing countries of Sri Lanka.
There have been few studies describing the development of a CSR framework development in developing countries.
However, as described in Chapter 6, Rais and Goedegebuure (2009) suggested a framework fro Indonesia that was developed according to stakeholder theory and is consistent with the CSR framework developed in this study.
In addition, Davenport (2000) and Ruf et al.(2001) developed CSR frameworks using stakeholder relationships.
As described in Chapter 2, CSR practices differ from country to country and culture to culture (Chambers 2003; Matten 2004).
These studies developed frameworks that are consistent with the literature and their own country's style.
