Скачать или смотреть Book Launch: Fundamental Rights and the Legal Obligations of Business

In his book, Professor David Bilchitz engages with the relatively neglected question of how to determine in law the substantive content of corporate obligations with respect to fundamental rights. Drawing on existing legal models, he systematizes and develops a multi-factoral approach which involves recognising that no one principle or factor alone can determine corporate obligations. Outlining many of the factors that are most important, he shows how they condition obligations. Given the existence of multiple and competing factors, the final determination of obligations requires a balancing process such as proportionality. This process is familiar to those working on fundamental rights but requires specific adaptations to the context of the corporation (and non-state actors more generally).

During the presentation, Prof Bilchitz will outline the central tenets of the multi-factoral approach he develops in the book and the complexities involved in determining the content of positive and negative corporate obligations in law.
