Human rights have traditionally been framed in a vertical
perspective with the duties of States confined to their own
citizens or residents. Interpretations of international human
rights treaties tend either to ignore or downplay obligations
beyond this 'territorial space'. This edited volume challenges the
territorial bias of mainstream human rights law. It argues that
with increased globalisation and the impact of international
corporations, organisations and non-State actors, human rights law
will become less relevant if it fails to adapt to changing
realities in which States are no longer the only leading actor.
Bringing together leading scholars in the field, the book explores
potential applications of international human rights law in a
multi-duty bearer setting. The first part of the book examines the
current state of the human rights obligations of foreign States,
corporations and international financial institutions, looking in
particular at the ways in which they address questions of
attribution and distribution of obligations and responsibility. The
second part is geared towards the identification of common
principles that may underpin a human rights legal regime that
incorporates obligations of foreign States as well as of non-State
actors. As a marker of important progress in understanding what
lies ahead for integrating foreign States and non-State actors in
the human rights dutybearer regime, this book will be of great
interest to scholars and practitioners of international human
rights law, public international law and international relations.
