Journal Title: Karadeniz İletişim Araştırmaları Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Diamond trade in Sierra Leone, an African country in the 1990s, caused the civil war. As a result of this war that lasted for 11 years and lost many people's lives. For the first time after World War II, a president of the state was tried and convicted. This trade and war is a turning point in manyways. In this study, Blood Diamond, a film about Sierra Leone's diamond trade and its trading, was intended to be qualitatively assessed in Carroll's four dimensions of responsibility (economic, legal, ethical and voluntary responsibilities) in the corporate social responsibility model. In the case study, the importance of model dimensions and their legal and ethical responsibilities are discussed in this model. As a result of the case study analysis, it can be said that the lack of legal and ethical responsibilities of the corporations may be dangerous for the life of the employees of the corporation and all the people in that country and for the safety of the employees. For the future of mankind and societies, legal and ethical responsibilities should lay the ground for economic responsibilities, and Carroll's model needs to be renewed. This study is important in terms of emphasizing the importance of legal and ethical responsibilities within the scope of corporate social responsibility.
