Despite the continuous addition of regulatory initiatives
concerning corporate human rights responsibilities, what we witness
more often than not is a situation of corporate impunity for human
rights abuses. The Bhopal gas leak examined as a site of human
rights violations rather than as a mass tort or an environmental
tragedy illustrates that the regulatory challenges that the victims
experienced in 1984 have not yet been overcome. This book grapples
with and offers solutions to three major regulatory challenges to
obligating companies to comply with human rights norms whilst doing
business, and asks; why companies should adhere to human rights,
what these responsibilities are, and how to ensure that companies
comply with their responsibilities.
Building on literature in the fields of law, human rights,
business ethics, management, regulation and philosophy, this book
proposes a new integrated theory of regulation to overcome
inadequacies of the existing regulatory framework in order to
humanize business.
This book will be of interest to scholars, students,
researchers, policy makers and human rights activists working in
the fields of Law, Business and Human Rights.
