Recenzii

'This is an impressive book for its ability to offer a very substantial depth of understanding of a variety of disciplines, with a special focus on business ethics. It includes insightful scholarly analysis across the breadth and complexity of the business and human rights to careful clarifications of key terminologies and providing case study prompts for further study. It engages with important debates, critiques and practical business considerations in this fast-evolving field. This is all done in a way which is clearly structured, accessible and engaging.' Robert McCorquodale, Professor of International Law and Human Rights, University of Nottingham
'This timely book fills a significant gap. It is the first truly interdisciplinary textbook on business and human rights. Written by one of the world's leading authorities in the field, it offers a rich and engaging account of one of the most vibrant fields contemporary national and international law and policy. Tracing the field from its historical roots in the 1990s it takes the reader masterfully through the main conceptual issues and significant legal and policy developments, offering throughout a strong analytical and critical eye on the subject. I recommend Prof. Wettstein's book unreservedly.' Peter Muchlinski, Professor of International Commercial Law, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
'This book offers an accessible but rigorous and critical treatment of key debates, controversies, milestones and remaining challenges in the business and human rights field. Professor Wettstein successfully bridges the divide between legal and non-legal perspectives and provides readers an insightful overview of the past, present and future of the business and human rights journey. This book will be an invaluable resource for established as well as emerging scholars, researchers and practitioners interested in exploring the interface between business and human rights.'
