Book Description
Quien pretenda, como lo hace el autor de este trabajo, proponer un modelo de responsabilidad penal para las empresas multinacionales (EMN) se adentra en ámbitos de estudio e investigación aún en plena construcción. Es más, diría, sin temor a equivocarme, que emprende una titánica tarea, pues se enfrenta a concepciones tradicionales del derecho penal, del derecho internacional y del derecho de los derechos humanos, con las cuales, muy a pesar de su aceptación teórica, no será posible aportar soluciones satisfactorias en la sociedad global de hoy. Ahora bien, eso fue precisamente lo que William J. Parra advirtió desde el inicio de esta investigación, de tal manera que la necesidad de superar los estáticos paradigmas teóricos fue el norte de este trabajo, orientado a construir un modelo que en verdad explicara la realidad del funcionamiento de las empresas multinacionales en la sociedad moderna e internacional, su posición normativa y los criterios de su responsabilidad (especialmente de orden penal).

Corporate Bodies and Guilty Minds
Author: William S. Laufer
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226470423
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
We live in an era defined by corporate greed and malfeasance—one in which unprecedented accounting frauds and failures of compliance run rampant. In order to calm investor fears, revive perceptions of legitimacy in markets, and demonstrate the resolve of state and federal regulators, a host of reforms, high-profile investigations, and symbolic prosecutions have been conducted in response. But are they enough? In this timely work, William S. Laufer argues that even with recent legal reforms, corporate criminal law continues to be ineffective. As evidence, Laufer considers the failure of courts and legislatures to fashion liability rules that fairly attribute blame for organizations. He analyzes the games that corporations play to deflect criminal responsibility. And he also demonstrates how the exchange of cooperation for prosecutorial leniency and amnesty belies true law enforcement. But none of these factors, according to Laufer, trumps the fact that there is no single constituency or interest group that strongly and consistently advocates the importance and priority of corporate criminal liability. In the absence of a new standard of corporate liability, the power of regulators to keep corporate abuses in check will remain insufficient. A necessary corrective to our current climate of graft and greed, Corporate Bodies and Guilty Minds will be essential to policymakers and legal minds alike. “[This] timely work offers a dispassionate analysis of problems relating to corporate crime.”—Harvard Law Review

Labour Rights as Human Rights
Author: Philip Alston
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Are efforts to protect workers' rights compatible with the forces of globalization? How can minimum standards designed to protect labor rights be implemented in a world in which national labor law is more and more at the mercy of international forces beyond its control? The contributors to this volume argue that international agreements and institutions are of central importance if labor rights are to be protected in a globalized economy, exploring some of the options that are open to governments, civil society, and the labor movement in the years ahead.

Resolving Foreign Bribery Cases with Non-Trial Resolutions Settlements and Non-Trial Agreements by Parties to the Anti-Bribery Convention
Author: OECD
Publisher: OECD Publishing
ISBN: 9264677852
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Non-trial resolutions, often referred to as settlements, have been the predominant means of enforcing foreign bribery and other related offences since the entry into force of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention 20 years ago. The last decade has seen a steady increase in the use of coordinated multi-jurisdictional non-trial resolutions, which have, to date, permitted the highest global amount of combined financial penalties in foreign bribery cases. This study is the first cross-country examination of the different types of resolutions that can be used to resolve foreign bribery cases.
