  • Summary

    This chapter examines standards of conduct applicable to businesses operating in civilian settlements in occupied territory, focusing on the Israeli settlements in the West Bank as a case study. It reviews the legal bodies which govern settlement projects and their applicability to businesses. Noting that businesses are not bound by international law directly, the chapter proceeds to examine the responsibility of businesses involved in settlements under the emerging soft law standards on businesses and human rights, namely the UN’s ‘Protect, Respect and Remedy’ Framework. Some businesses directly contribute to violations of human rights on which the settlement project is inextricably dependent. Businesses operating on a regular basis in settlements benefit from such violations and contribute to their perpetuation. The chapter examines the practical implications of these forms of responsibility in light of the UN Framework and of domestic law.

  • This collection of essays is written by some of the world's leading experts in international human rights law, and corresponds to the main junctures in the professional life of Professor David Kretzmer, a leading human right academic and practitioner. The different essays focus on contemporary human rights protection challenges. They address conceptual problems such as differences between limits and restrictions, and application of human rights standards to businesses and international organisations; legal doctrinal responses to changing realities in the field of surveillance and identity politics; the weakness of monitoring institutions engaged in standard setting; and the practical difficulties in applying international human rights law to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in a manner sensitive to gender dimensions and the particular political dynamics of the situation. Collectively, the essays offer a rich picture of the current potential shortcomings of international human rights law in addressing complex problems of law, politics and ethics.
