`The interaction of government regulation, including international initiatives such as the UN Global Compact (UNGC), and the embedding of CSR in business strategy is gaining a new relevance in the face of globalization and emerging markets. This volume takes a fresh look at CSR from a human rights and legal perspective with reference to business-government interaction in both developed and developing countries. It is a very valuable contribution to the discourse on CSR and law in the 21st century.'---Simon Pickard, EABIS Director GeneralWhat has the law to do with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)? Do Business Responsibilities for Human Rights (BRHR, with an acronym introduced in the book) differ from CSR? This book challenges the separation between CSR and law. It also demonstrates that BRHR may be gradually separating from CSR through emphasis on state obligations. Authors from around the world discuss how businesses engage in CSR and human rights, and how governments and intergovernmental organizations may support businesses in taking responsibility.In this book, you will find a group of exciting chapters written by management scholars, lawyers, CSR practitioners and business ethicists. Drawing on cases from around the world, they want to set a new agenda regarding divergence and convergence between CSR, BRHR and the law.
