Human rights business: development of a work program on the responsibility of commercial companies, authored by Aurora Vicolescu Helen Yanopoulos.

At a time when the globalization of multinational companies has truly increased, it has become difficult to ignore the rising demands for international standards of their conduct. Working in slavery in exploited factories, widespread environmental destruction, and drug experiments in the third world are just a few of many issues. This collection of research comes at the right time to address the interconnection between calls for corporate social responsibility and demands related to the spread of international standards for human rights. This collection of scholars from diverse intellectual backgrounds offers explanations that are rich in their expertise but easy to understand regarding issues related to law, politics, international relations, and how they are interconnected, while also opening the door to the illegal aspects of the relationship between commercial work and human rights. This collection helps researchers, practitioners, and students in law, development, business management, and international studies to delve into this emerging field related to human rights. 326 pages
