Abstract Based on the continuing discussion on Chinese management research, the present paper focuses on the social responsibility of management scholarship. In particular, we illustrate four paths to perform responsible management scholarship, namely knowledge creation orientation, publication orientation, practice interaction orientation, and self-change orientation. In addition, we claim that management scholars should pay more attention to the changing reality. Through demonstrating changes in environmental, organizational, and individual levels in current era, we offer examples of emerging issues that both management practitioners and scholars might be interested in. To sum up, the present study provides action suggestions on responsible management scholarship, especially, adopts a more complete process of study coping with relationship among academic communities, and the debate on localization and globalization.
