It is an undeniable fact that corporations engage in widespread human rights abuses across the globe. However, there exists a significant disagreement among scholars, politicians, and business actors regarding the most effective strategies for preventing and addressing these abuses, as well as the feasibility of adopting a treaty on the matter. This book delves into the potential adoption of a treaty on business and human rights, initially proposed by Ecuador and South Africa. It examines the practicality and content of such a treaty, including whether it should regulate direct corporate obligations or extend to extraterritorial obligations. By drawing upon experiences from other international legal regimes and developments in regional systems, the book aims to inform the global debate on business and human rights. The Future of Business and Human Rights serves as a valuable resource for academics, practitioners, and policy makers, providing insights into the current debate that is at the forefront of legal and diplomatic discussions.
