Titre : Business regulation and non-state actors : Whose standards? Whose development? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Darryl Reed, Auteur ; Peter Utting, Auteur ; Ananya Mukherjee-Reed Editeur : Routledge Année de publication : 2012 Importance : 346 p. Présentation : 04.06.REE Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Marchés Entreprises Régulation des entreprises Développement économique Conditions de travail Comptabilité Global Compact Global Reporting Initiative Brésil Forest Stewardship Council Marine Stewardship Council Grande distribution Wal-Mart Travail des enfants Asie du Sud Kimberley Process Diamants Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative Tribunal des Peuples Amérique latine Worker Rights Consortium Agriculture Commerce équitable Afrique Mines World Fair Trade Organization Fairtrade International Mexique Index. décimale : 04.03 - Gestion Résumé : This volume assesses the achievements and limitations of a new set of non-state or multistakeholder institutions that are concerned with improving the social and environmental record of business, and holding corporations to account. It does so from a perspective that aims to address two limitations that often characterize this field of inquiry. First, fragmentation: articles or books typically focus on one or a handful of cases. Second, the development dimension: what does such regulation imply for developing countries and subaltern groups in terms of well-being, empowerment and sustainability? This volume examines more than 20 initiatives or institutions associated with different regulatory and development approaches, including the business-friendly corporate social responsibility (CSR) agenda, 'corporate accountability' and 'fair trade' or social economy.

Titre : Social and Solidarity Economy : A Pathway to Socially Sustainable Development? Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Peter Utting, Auteur Editeur : UNRISD Année de publication : 29 April 2013 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Economie sociale et solidaire Résumé : As the international community attempts to tackle a complex set of twenty-first century development challenges, attention has focused on the possibilities of more integrated models of development. This think piece argues that both the concept of sustainable development (centred on economic growth, and social and environmental protection) and the classic model of what can be termed “embedded liberalism” (centred on the welfare state and the decent work enterprise), are found wanting from the perspective of integrative development. In today’s world five key dimensions need to be addressed simultaneously: economic development, social protection, environmental protection, gender equality and sociopolitical empowerment. The field of Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) seems to have considerable potential in this regard. Can that potential be realized?

Titre : Voluntary Approaches to Corporate Responsibility : Readings and a Resource Guide Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rhys Jenkins, Auteur ; Peter Utting, Auteur ; Renato Alva Pino, Auteur Editeur : UN-NGLS Année de publication : 2002 Collection : Development Dossier Importance : 211 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Entreprises multinationales
DroitTags : Sociétés transnationales Normes sociales Normes Empreinte sociale Travail décent Travail Droits Index. décimale : 04.03 Gestion Résumé : The focus of this volume is the growing debate on corporate social and environmental responsibility. This debate has taken on a higher profile in recent years as increasing attention has been drawn to the need for a policy response to the phenomenon of globalization. Such a policy response would be one which secures social cohesion and environmental protection.
The first section, “Corporate Codes of Conduct: Self-Regulation in a Global Economy,” written by Rhys Jenkins, details the changes that have taken place in corporate regulation, explores what is behind the growing numbers of corporate codes of conduct, and describes the different stakeholders involved. In the second section, “Regulating Business via Multistakeholder Initiatives: A Preliminary Assessment,” Peter Utting outlines the move from state-led command and control regulation in the 1960s and 1970s, to corporate self-regulation in the 1980s and 1990s, to a more recent trend towards co-regulation. The third section provides sources of further information, including a bibliography and a number of related websites.
