Do you also want us to weigh in on what obligations corporations organized under the laws of the US and operating in the US have with respect to human rights?
SO: Good question from the lawyers which i expect has its implications ;-), Well if this will help us achieve anything in this process fine, otherwise i think we should be mindful of pushing stuffs to the lawyers.
I wrote a paper on the topic 2 years ago for the Ruggie Commission at the United Nations.
