内容説明
All students and advocates of human rights will be interested in this concerted exploration of the human rights moral obligations that fall, not directly on states, but on private and public organisations. Such an approach to human rights opens up the possibility of holding corporations and bureaucracies to account for human rights violations even when they have acted in accordance with the law. This interdisciplinary and international project brings together eminent philosophers, lawyers, social scientists and practitioners to articulate theoretically and develop in practical contexts the moral implications of human rights for non-state actors. What emerges from the book as a whole is a distinctive contemporary vision of the emerging moral impact of human rights and its significance for organisational behaviour and performance.

内容説明
All students and advocates of human rights will be interested in this concerted exploration of the human rights moral obligations that fall, not directly on states, but on private and public organisations. Such an approach to human rights opens up the possibility of holding corporations and bureaucracies to account for human rights violations even when they have acted in accordance with the law. This interdisciplinary and international project brings together eminent philosophers, lawyers, social scientists and practitioners to articulate theoretically and develop in practical contexts the moral implications of human rights for non-state actors. The analysis of human rights in moral terms and the scope, force and location of their correlative duties and responsibilities is undertaken in Part I. Part II follows these ideas through in relation to business ethics, particularly with respect to multinational enterprises. Part III focuses on similar issues with respect to the police, prisons, technological bureaucracies and the military.
What emerges from the book as a whole is a distinctive contemporary vision of the emerging moral impact of human rights and its significance for organisational behaviour and performance. This is important reading for anyone concerned with human rights issues as they impact on management, business, public service and other large scale organisations. It will be of particular interest to researchers and students in the fields of Business Ethics, Human Rights, Public Policy and International Business.
