Sinopsis:

Reseña del editor: As corporations reach into the far corners of the world, they can not only spread prosperity but also awareness of, and respect for, core international human rights norms. In this scholarly monograph, Dr. Chambers identifies the gaps in traditional approaches (which rely on popular organisational change management or formal regulatory frameworks), identifies how and why these can ultimately fail, and explores how multinational corporations can play a key role in human rights education and implementation. In a case study of a single corporation operating in South East Asia, she examines current practices, with all their complexities and challenges, and finds among them the key roles and processes for a new implementation model, one that will be invaluable for any commercial organisation seeking to enhance human rights in its field of influence. An interdisciplinary approach and in-depth empirical research makes this study both highly readable and a rich resource for all those interested in human rights education and corporate responsibility, whether from a management, academic or practical perspective.
