Private International Law Aspects of Corporate Social Responsibility
This book addresses one of the core challenges in the corporate social responsibility (or business and human rights) debate: how to ensure adequate access to remedy for victims of corporate abuses that infringe upon their human rights. However, ensuring access to remedy depends on a series of normative and judicial elements that become highly complex when disputes are transnational. In such cases, courts need to consider and apply different laws that relate to company governance, to determine the competent forum, to define which bodies of law to apply, and to ensure the adequate execution of judgments. The book also discusses how alternative methods of dispute settlement can relate to this t...

Beginning with a macro-comparative assessment o...
Legal Certainty in a Contemporary Context
This book addresses issues concerning the shifting contemporary meaning of legal certainty.

In the context of legal modernity, the principle of legal certainty—the idea that the law must be sufficiently clear to provide t...
