Corporate obligations concerning socio-economic rights : An introduction
Izvleček
Participants in the global economic and financial milieu di-rectly affect the day-to-day level of respect and protection of the human rights of vulnerable individuals. On one hand, corporati-ons create jobs, tax revenues and economic growth, while, on the other, some of them can be criticised for their lack of respect for human rights. The dilemma that arises is this: how should transna-tional and other corporations most effectively respect and pro-tect human rights without compromising their primary business objectives? In this way, this article examines and proposes theore-tical framework for corporate obligations concerning socio-eco-nomic rights.
