Presentation

In the past twenty years, holding economic actors responsible for gross human rights violations has become a global cause. This project examines a variety of political narratives on corporate accountability: from the neoliberal model based on justice within free and (almost) unregulated markets, to neo-Marxist approaches that claim a radical restructuring of the economic system to achieve class equality, to indigenous views that propose alternative visions on human rights, to incorporate the right of nature as an essential element of human development.
