'At a time when the wind blows against international courts and tribunals and states seem to have turned their back to the idea of international justice, Steinitz gets us back on track and boldly charts the way forward. This brilliant, visionary book makes a compelling case for a missing key component of an ideal international judicial system.' Cesare Romano, W. Joseph Ford Fellow, Loyola Law School, Los Angeles 'In sum, Steinitz' book is an original, thought-provoking and highly ambitious addition to the existing literature on 'business and human rights'. It is a very informative and insightful reading that impressively covers many different issues and fields.' Leander Beinlich, Heidelberg Journal of International Law
