It illuminates the different substantive and procedural aspects of the legal proceedings and negotiations between the various local and transnational actors implicated in the Ali Enterprises fire, as well as the legal and policy reforms sparked by the incident. This endeavour serves to embed these legal cases and reform efforts in the larger context of human and labour rights protection and global value chain governance. It also offers a concrete case study relevant for ongoing debates around the role of transnational approaches in making human rights litigation, advocacy, and law reform more effective. In this regard, the book interrogates and critically reflects on such legal campaigns and local and transnational reform work with a view to future transformative legal and social activism.Interdisciplinary Studies in Human Rights Human rightsbicsscPolitical science & theorybicsscEmployment & labour lawbicsscHuman RightsPolitical ScienceLabour Law/Social LawPolitics and Human RightsStrategic litigation/public interest litigationLaw of global value chainsCritical perspectives on the lawHuman Rights Due DilligenceCorporate AccountabilityTransnational LawTransnational ActivismCorporate Social ResponsibilityThird world approaches to the lawHuman Rights and International Labour RIghtsOpen accessHuman rights, civil rightsPolitical science & theoryEmployment & labour law: generalSocial law & Medical lawHuman rightsPolitical science & theoryEmployment & labour lawSaage-Maaß Miriam1235915Zumbansen Peer516883Bader Michael997921Shahab Palvasha1235916AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910488694603321Transnational Legal Activism in Global Value Chains2870257UNINA
