Such an approach to human rights opens up the possibility of holding corporations and bureaucracies to account for human right violations even when they have acted in accordance with the law. This interdisciplinary and international project brings together eminent philosophers, lawyers, social scientists and practitioners to articulate theoretically and develop in practical contexts the moral implications of human rights for non-state actors."--Jacket Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes English In OhioLINK electronic book center SpringerLink Subject Human rights -- Moral and ethical aspects Public administration -- Moral and ethical aspects Corporations -- Moral and ethical aspects Human rights.
