The modern corporation offers significant potential to contribute to the human rights project, in part because it is free from the challenges posed by national sovereignty. That promise has begun to be realized in businesses practicing corporate due diligence with regard to the human rights of persons involved in or affected by those enterprises. Yet due diligence preserves the self-seeking orientation of the conventional corporation and seeks only to protect itself from committing human rights abuses. This approach, typified by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, does not address background conditions for and root causes of vulnerability to human rights abuses. My alternative, the human rights corporation, takes an other-regarding orientation that advances human rights within the corporation and in its human, social, economic, and natural environments. It moves beyond the due diligence carrot-and-stick model to a model in which the corporation produces not only goods and services but also human rights consciousness and practice as well.

超越尽职调查：人权公司

现代公司为人权项目提供了巨大的潜力，部分原因是它没有国家主权带来的挑战。这一承诺已开始在企业对参与企业或受企业影响的人的人权进行企业尽职调查中实现。然而，尽职调查保留了传统公司的自我追求取向，只寻求保护自己免受侵犯人权的行为。这种以《联合国商业与人权指导原则》为代表的方法没有解决容易遭受侵犯人权行为的背景条件和根本原因。我的替代方案是人权公司，它采取与其他相关的方向，在公司内部及其人力、社会、经济、和自然环境。它超越了尽职调查的胡萝卜加大棒模型，成为公司不仅生产商品和服务，还生产人权意识和实践的模型。
