COLONIAL REPERCUSSIONS - Panel "Legal interventions against transnational corporations"

Symposium I "(Post-)Colonial Injustice and Legal Interventions" of the "Colonial Repercussions/Koloniales Erbe" event series at the Akademie der Künste, Berlin (26 and 27 January 2018) Transnational corporations are still able to evade their responsibility for human rights violations and for environmental destruction through mining, infrastructure projects and oil production either by outsourcing production sites or along the supply chains. The people in the areas affected are often unable to defend themselves against what is in some cases extensive damage to their health or deprivation of their livelihood. Workers often cannot assert their rights, either in their home country or at the headquarters of the transnational corporations. What legal interventions within transnational networks are possible here?
