Challenging Corporate Power. Gearoid O Cuinn, Miriam Saage-Maass.

In “Challenging Corporate Power,” Gearóid Ó Cuinn and Miriam Saage-Maaß, both human rights lawyers, discuss how to use human rights litigation to challenge corporate power. They emphasize using a systemic approach that combines the protection of individual rights with collective action in order to address global crises such as climate change and inequality. They advocate for innovative legal strategies to reframe how corporate responsibility is understood and to hold states, corporations and other intermediary actors accountable for human rights violations within global production networks.
