This article evaluates two key extraterritorial techniques to bring human rights standards to bear on corporate misconduct, and does so through an analysis of the jurisdictional dilemma they raise. The background to the article is the difficulty of imposing human rights standards on transnational business operating in ‘host’ countries where, for various reasons, such standards are not implemented locally, resulting in governance gaps. Civil litigation in the company’s ‘home’ state and ‘long arm’ regulation emanating from the home state are important alternative methods of establishing and enforcing human rights standards, but they engender controversy both in terms of their legitimacy under public international law and because there are a number of objections to their use that go beyond their technical legality. Concerns include intrusion into the exclusive jurisdiction of the host state to control this litigation or to determine and follow its own regulatory policy in this area, and the related concern about home state imperialism/neocolonialism. The article evaluates whether these concerns raise true dilemmas. For those that do, it offers suggestions for how to adapt or refine extraterritorial techniques.

对将域外人权标准纳入公司不当行为
司法管辖权困境的两种关键域外技术的评估

本文评估了两种关键的域外技术，以使人权标准对公司的不当行为产生影响，并通过分析它们引起的管辖权困境来进行评估。这篇文章的背景是很难对在“东道国”经营的跨国企业强加人权标准，由于种种原因，这些标准没有在本地实施，从而导致了治理方面的差距。公司“本国”的民事诉讼和源于本国的“长臂”法规是建立和执行人权标准的重要替代方法，但它们在国际公法的合法性方面都引起了争议，因为超出其技术合法性的许多反对意见。关注的问题包括侵入东道国的专属管辖区以控制该诉讼或确定并遵循其在该领域的监管政策，以及对本国帝国主义/新殖民主义的相关关注。本文评估了这些担忧是否引起了真正的困境。对于那些这样做的人，它为如何适应或完善域外技术提供了建议。
