Conclusion. 330 $a"Since the mid-1980s, beginning with the unsuccessful Union Carbide litigation in the USA, litigants have been exploring ways of holding multinational corporations [MNCs] liable for offshore human rights abuses in the courts of the companies' home States. The highest profile cases have been the human rights claims brought against MNCs (such as Unocal, Shell, Rio Tinto, Coca Cola, and Talisman) under the Alien Tort Claims Act in the United States. Such claims also raise issues under customary international law (which may be directly applicable in US federal law) and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations [RICO] statute. Another legal front is found in the USA, England and Australia, where courts have become more willing to exercise jurisdiction over transnational common law tort claims against home corporations. Futhermore, a corporation's human rights practices were indirectly targeted under trade practices law in groundbreaking litigation in California against sportsgoods manufacturer Nike. This new study examines these developments and the procedural arguments (eg. regarding personal jurisdiction and especially forum non conveniens) which have been used to block litigation, as well as the principles which can be gleaned from cases which have settled. The analysis is important for human rights victims in order to know the boundaries of possible available legal redress. It is also important for MNCs, which must now take human rights into account in managing the legal risks (as well as moral and reputation risks) associated with offshore projects."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aHuman rights law in perspective ;$vv. 4. 606 $aNoncitizens$zUnited States 606 $aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aEnvironmental responsibility 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aJurisdiction (International law) 606 $aTorts (International law) 606 $2International human rights law 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNoncitizens 615 0$aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental responsibility. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aJurisdiction (International law) 615 0$aTorts (International law) 676 $a341.481 676 $a342.085 700 $aJoseph$b Sarah$0257247 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451066003321 996 $aCorporations and transnational human rights litigation$9765617 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05226nam 2200805Ia 450 001 9910778204803321 005 20230721022532.0 010 $a1-282-29610-8 010 $a9786612296109 010 $a3-11-021738-4 024 7 $a10.1515/9783110217384 035 $a(CKB)1000000000789911 035 $a(EBL)453835 035 $a(OCoLC)516475435 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000722726 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12290760 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000722726 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10698558 035 $a(PQKB)10138172 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000340270 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11256717 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000340270 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10387304 035 $a(PQKB)10612775 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC453835 035 $a(DE-B1597)36479 035 $a(OCoLC)775644832 035 $a(DE-B1597)9783110217384 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL453835 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10329881 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL229610 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000789911 100 $a20090505d2009 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aMediation, remediation, and the dynamics of cultural memory$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by Astrid Erll, Ann Rigney 210 $aNew York $cWalter de Gruyter$d2009 215 $a1 online resource (264 p.) 225 0 $aMedia and cultural memory = Medien und kulturelle erinnerung 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a3-11-028396-4 311 $a3-11-020444-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $t Frontmatter -- $tTable of Contents -- $tIntroduction: Cultural Memory and its Dynamics -- $tI.

The specific concern of this collection is linking the use of media to the larger socio-cultural processes involved in collective memory-making. The focus rests in particular on two aspects of media use: the basic dynamics of "mediation" and "remediation". The key questions are: What role do media play in the production and circulation of cultural memories? How do mediation, remediation and intermediality shape objects and acts of cultural remembrance? How can new, emergent media redefine or transform what is collectively remembered? The essays of this collection focus on social, historical, religious, and artistic media-memories. The authors analyze the memory-making impact of news media, the mediation and remediation of lieux de mémoire, the medial representation of colonial and postcolonial, of Holocaust and Second World War memories, and finally the problematization of these very processes in artistic media forms, such as novels and movies. 410 0$aMedia and Cultural Memory / Medien und kulturelle Erinnerung 606 $aMass media and culture 606 $aMass media$xInfluence 606 $aCollective memory 610 $aCultural Memory. 610 $aIntermediality. 610 $aMedia. 610 $aMediation. 615 0$aMass media and culture. 615 0$aMass media$xInfluence. 615 0$aCollective memory. 676 $a302.23 686 $aCV 3500$2rvk 701 $aErll$b Astrid$0299080 701 $aRigney$b Ann$0930766 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778204803321 996 $aMediation, remediation, and the dynamics of cultural memory$93699194 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03001nam 22006251 450 001 9910967761203321 005 20240401190858.0 010 $a9780253010926 010 $a0253010926 035 $a(CKB)2550000001120300 035 $a(EBL)1418453 035 $a(OCoLC)859536744 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001000718 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11551055 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001000718 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10961045 035 $a(PQKB)11766453 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse31987 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1418453 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10769263 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL523682 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1418453 035 $a(Perlego)2429573 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001120300 100 $a20131007d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aTomorrow's Air Force $etracing the past, shaping the future /$fJeffrey J.
