This book examines the State's duty to protect human rights in Asia
amidst rising concern over the human rights impact of business
organisations in the region, a topic which has hitherto been
understudied. It analyses a range of inter-connected issues: the
advent of international standards, the UN Guiding Principles on
Business and Human Rights, the challenges inherent in the
formulation of National Action Plans on business and human rights,
the need for improved legislation and policies, access to remedies,
and conflicts with indigenous peoples over business activities. The
book also covers innovative themes such as BHR in the era of smart
cities, ethical consumer behavior, and a human rights management
system, which are emerging areas of enquiry in this field
concluding with a range of critical issues to be addressed,
including the need for an assessment of COVID-19 pandemic's impact
on BHR in Asia and beyond. This book is part of Asia Centre's
exploration of the nascent regional human rights architecture that
is facing significant obstacles in protecting human rights and
showcases the progress achieved and the ongoing challenges across
Asia.
