In today's rapidly evolving industries, design has emerged as the driving force, transcending mere aesthetics to become a powerful catalyst for innovation and success. Whether it's graphic design, interior design, fashion design, or any other domain, the impact of thoughtful and strategic design is undeniable.

A well-crafted logo or visually appealing marketing collateral can set a company apart in a crowded market. Interior design has shifted from a focus on functionality to creating immersive and experiential spaces that enhance well-being and productivity. Fashion design, once confined to runways, now intersects seamlessly with technology, sustainability, and cultural influences. The industry is driven not just by trends but by a commitment to ethical practices and diverse representation. In every sector, design thinking has become synonymous with problem-solving, pushing boundaries, and fostering user-centric solutions. As design takes the lead, industries are recognizing its transformative potential. It's not merely about appearances; it's about shaping user experiences, sparking innovation, and redefining narratives.

The book discusses the evolving nature of corporate social responsibility in times of geopolitical uncertainty. This uncertainty is prompted by geopolitical risks faced by modern companies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change, as well as social and economic consequences of wars in Ukraine and elsewhere. Such geopolitical risks undeniably raise questions as to what the new “ethical” norm of corporate conduct should be. This book strives to evaluate the effectiveness of European legal approach regarding the conduct of commercial companies in the times of geopolitical uncertainty. Amongst jurisdictions considered in the book, a particular attention is paid to France. It is one of the leading European countries when it comes to the regulation of corporate conduct vis-à-vis the interests of a large group of stakeholders. As a case study to assess the effectiveness of European legal approach, the book looks at the geopolitical risks provoked by the war in Ukraine. This unique and timely study fills a void in this important area of research by exploring key arguments related to what corporate conduct is, or should be considered as “ethical” in times of geopolitical uncertainty.
