A growing array of human rights advocates seeks to influence business conduct through direct cooperative engagement with corporations in the form of public-private partnerships, multi-stakeholder initiatives, and other transnational governance regimes. Notwithstanding the ideological differences between these actors and the institutional differences between their targets, both involve efforts to propagate norms of acceptable social conduct and transform them into legal rules. the shift from norms-based to rules-based corporate social accountability is a predicate to a second shift—from legal rules to governance regimes. This governance shift is driven by the professional identity of corporate social accountability advocates and their ability to convince corporate decision-makers of the value of human rights.
