La corporate civil liability nell'ordinamento giuridico canadese (The ‘Corporate Civil Liability’ in the Canadian Legal System) (original) (raw)

Diritti umani e diritto internazionale, 2020

Abstract

The paper aims to analyse the judgment of the Supreme Court of Canada in Nevsun case in which it offers a possible direct remedy for violations of fundamental human rights enshrined in customary international law by corporations. This decision is reflective of a new development in the growing wave of civil liability suits in many domestic jurisdictions of Western States to hold transnational corporations accountable for human rights violations and environmental damages.
