There is ample evidence about the negative effects business
activity of all types can have on the provision of human rights.
Equally, there can be little doubt economic development, usually
driven through business activity and trade, is necessary for any
state to provide the institutions and infrastructure necessary to
secure and provide human rights for their citizens. The United
Nations and businesses recognise this tension and are collaborating
to effect change in business behaviours through voluntary
initiatives such as the Global Compact and John Ruggie's Guiding
Principles. Yet voluntary approaches are evidently failing to
prevent human rights violations and there are few alternatives in
law for affected communities to seek justice. This book seeks to
robustly challenge the current status quo of business approaches to
human rights in order to develop meaningful alternatives in an
attempt to breech the gap between the realities of business and
human rights and its discourse. This book was previously published
as a special issue of the International Journal of Human Rights.
