Description

How can businesses operate profitably and sustainably while ensuring that they are applying human rights?

It is possible to apply human rights while at the same time decreasing cost and making human rights contribute to profits.

Yet business efforts alone are insufficient, and states must possess sufficient regulatory power to work together with businesses and investors – not only to improve human rights but also to foster development more broadly.

This textbook, the first of its kind, explores all aspects of the links between business operations and human rights.

Its twenty-five chapters guide readers systematically through all the particular features of this intersection, integrating legal and business approaches.

Thematic sections cover conceptual and regulatory frameworks, remedies and dispute resolution, and practical enforcement tools.

Ideal for courses in business, law, policy and international development, the book is also essential reading for managers in large corporations.
