What private law avenues are open to victims of human rights
violations? This innovative new collection explores this question
across sixteen jurisdictions in the Global South and Global North.
It examines existing mechanisms in domestic law for bringing civil
claims in relation to the involvement of states, corporations and
individuals in specific categories of human rights violation: (i)
assault or unlawful arrest and detention of persons; (ii)
environmental harm; and (iii) harmful or unfair labour conditions.
Taking a truly global perspective, it assesses the question in
jurisdictions as diverse as Kenya, Switzerland, the US and the
Philippines. A much needed and important new statement on how to
respond to human rights violations.
