Corporations and other business enterprises often operate in countries affected by conflict or repressive regimes. As such, they may become involved in human rights violations and crimes under international law - either as the main perpetrators, or as accomplices by aiding and abetting government actors. Transitional justice mechanisms, such as trials, truth commissions, and reparations have usually focused on abuses by state authorities or by non-state actors directly connected to the state, such as paramilitary groups. Innovative transitional justice mechanisms have, however, now started to address corporate accountability for human rights abuses and crimes under international law and have attempted to provide redress for victims. This book analyses this development assessing how transitional justice can provide remedies for corporate human rights abuses and crimes under international law. Canvassing a broad range of literature relating to international criminal law mechanisms, regional human rights systems, domestic courts, truth and reconciliation commissions, and land restitution programmes, the book evaluates the limitations and potential of each mechanism. Acknowledging the limited extent to which transitional justice has been able to effectively tackle the role of corporations in human rights violations and international crimes, the book nevertheless points the way towards greater engagement with corporate accountability as part of transitional justice. A valuable contribution to the literature on transitional justice and on business and human rights, this book will appeal to scholars, researchers and PhD students in these areas, as well as lawyers and other practitioners working on corporate accountability and transitional justice"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Liability for human rights violations. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010014386 650 0 $a Tort liability of corporations. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85136155 650 0 $a Transitional justice. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008008884 650 7 $a Liability for human rights violations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01763871 650 7 $a Tort liability of corporations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01152877 650 7 $a Transitional justice. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01747069 650 7 $a VoÌlkerrecht. $0 (DE-588)4063693-8 $2 gnd 650 7 $a VoÌlkerstrafrecht. $0 (DE-588)4188481-4 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Menschenrechtsverletzung. $0 (DE-588)4276272-8 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Multinationales Unternehmen. $0 (DE-588)4075092-9 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Regulierung. $0 (DE-588)4201190-5 $2 gnd 776 08 $i Online version: $a Pietropaoli, Irene. $t Business, human rights and transitional justice. $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2020 $z 9780367809546 $w (DLC) 2020000641 830 0 $a Transitional justice. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2010141046 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017013944.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FB5BDF7C9F4211EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
