| Book Subtitle | An Evolving Agenda For Corporate Responsibility |
| Book Description | In a time when multinational corporations have become truly globalised, demands for global standards on their behaviour are increasingly difficult to dismiss. Work conditions in sweatshops, widespread destruction of the environment, and pharmaceutical trials in third world countries are only the tip of the iceberg. , , This timely collection of essays addresses the interface between the calls for corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the demands for an extension of international human rights standards. Scholars from a vast variety of backgrounds provide expert yet accessible accounts of questions of law, politics, economics and international relations and how they relate to one another, while also encouraging non-legal perspectives on how businesses operate within and around human rights. , , The result is an essential incursion for a wide range of scholars, practitioners and students in law, development, business studies and international studies, in this emerging area of human rights. |
| Editorial Review | This book provides a very good selection of the range of issues of corporate responsibility in the area of human rights. The authors offer insightful engagement with a variety of issues based on application to relevant examples in practice and from different perspectives.' Robert McCorquodale, Professor of International Law and Human Rights, University of Nottingham |
