Abstract: By means of content analysis, the paper studies the corporate social responsibility information disclosure of typical corporations in the Pearl River Delta and their social responsibility preferences. The results are as follows: typical corporations in the Pearl River Delta lack the strong sense of disclosing social responsibility information via the internet and the disclosed information is relatively simple; typical corporations in this area generally pay more attention to environment protection, employee rights and benefits, and community participation, esp. responsibility for employee rights and benefits; corporations are forced to take social responsibility mainly by exterior pressures like public administrations, nongovernment organizations and employees.

Key words: corporate social responsibility, information disclosure, social responsibility preference
