ABSTRACT Many academic authors, policy makers, NGOs, and corporations have focused on top-down human rights global norm-making, such as the United Nations Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). What is often missing are contextual and substantive analyses that interrogate rights mobilization and linkages between voluntary transnational rules and domestic governance. Deploying a socio-legal approach and using a combination of longitudinal field and archival data, this article investigates how a local, indigenous community in Northern Chile mobilized their rights over a period of almost two decades. We found that rights mobilization was largely shaped by tensions between the different logics of legality and the business organization. In our case, the UNGP implementation process has been ineffective in giving rightsholders access to genuine remedy. On the contrary, it has led to weakened rights mobilization, dividing the local community. We conclude that greater attention to rights mobilization and domestic governance dynamics should be given in the business and human rights debate.

在合法索赔和私有化救济之间左右为难:智利反对黄金开采的权利动员

摘要 许多学术作者、政策制定者、非政府组织和公司都专注于自上而下的人权全球规范制定,例如联合国商业与人权指导原则 (UNGP)。经常缺少的是询问权利动员以及自愿跨国规则与国内治理之间的联系的背景和实质性分析。本文采用社会法律方法并结合纵向实地和档案数据,调查智利北部的一个当地土著社区如何在近二十年的时间里动员他们的权利。我们发现权利动员在很大程度上是由不同的合法性逻辑与商业组织之间的紧张关系所塑造的。在我们的例子中,UNGP 的实施过程未能有效地让权利人获得真正的补救。相反,它导致权利动员减弱,使当地社区分裂。我们的结论是,在商业和人权辩论中应该更加关注权利动员和国内治理动态。
