- Title
Social Responsibility and Universities in Slovenia .
- Authors

- Abstract
Modern universities are expected to act socially responsible, in the public interest, and for the benefit of all interested stakeholders, internal and external. Although understanding and definitions of social responsibility vary, a short literature overview has been offered. Through the content analysis of Slovenian universities’ texts in their missions, strategies, last published self-evaluation reports, and quality manuals, the appearance of the term social responsibility has been verified. However, as there are many different definitions of social responsibility, study results do not show a homogeneous assertion of this term in documents. Consequently, it is impossible to find a unified philosophical view of a university's role in society. Nevertheless, findings show some differences in how public and private universities deal with these questions.
