Transnational business activities are important drivers of growth
for developing and the least developed countries. However, they can
also negatively impact the enjoyment of human rights. In some
cases, multinational enterprises (MNEs) have even been accused of
grave human rights abuses in the territory of the states where
their subsidiaries operate. Since the parent companies of many MNEs
are incorporated under the law of European states, those countries'
domestic law and the European legal framework play a crucial role
in establishing how their activities should be conducted - also
throughout their supply chains - and which remedies will be
available when corporate human rights violations occur. In recent
years, the European Union, the Council of Europe and their Member
States have been adopting policies and legislation to ensure
respect for human rights by businesses and have developed a body of
related case law. These legal instruments can be considered the
European responses to the challenges posed at international-law
level, and they constitute the focus of research of this book.
Through its collected chapters - written by scholars and
practitioners under the direction of the editor, Angelica Bonfanti
- the book identifies the European solutions to the business and
human rights international legal issues, provides an overall
assessment of their effectiveness, and examines their potential
evolution.
