Can transnational corporations ignore human rights as long as
governments don't hold them accountable? If the UN is put in charge
of a territory, is it bound by human rights law? Under traditional
approaches to human rights, non-state actors cannot be parties to
the relevant treaties and so they are only bound to the extent that
obligations accepted by States can be applied to them by
governments. This situation threatens to make a mockery of much of
the international system of accountability for human rights
violations. The contributors to this volume examine the different
approaches that might be taken in order to ensure some degree of
accountability. Making space in the legal regime to take account of
the role of non-State actors is one of the biggest and most
critical challenges facing international law today.
