Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:This thesis discusses the evolving concepts of corporate liability in international supply chains against the backdrop of a comparative analysis between the French Duty of Vigilance Law and the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG). As globalization intensifies trade between the Global North and the Global South, human rights and environmental impact linked to supply chains have become highly contested issues. The research investigates the impact of these two legislative frameworks on corporate behaviors, highlighting their efficacy in promoting adherence and addressing ongoing limitations. Additionally, it evaluates the wider European context with the implementation of the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), assessing how standardized legal frameworks may improve corporate accountability on a global scale. Modifications in light of the study advocate for broadened parameters of due diligence responsibilities, increased enforcing strategies, and a call for harmonization of domestic legislation with global benchmarks in order to increase transparency and accountability.
