Review
"'Mr. Tully has made a valuable contribution to all those working in the area of corporate social responsibility by providing a volume that captures applicable international law all in one place.' - Aron Cramer, CEO, Business for Social Responsibility (BSR) 'Stephen Tully has rigorously assembled a comprehensive range of international documents on corporate responsibility, ranging from international law to multi-stakeholder initiatives. By giving due regard to initiatives across a wide spectrum of origins and time-scales, the compilation will broaden the perspective of even the most well-read corporate responsibility practitioner, scholar, or activist. A very helpful preface and concise commentary on each document provide an important framework for the occasionally daunting number of sources and texts. The volume successfully contributes to defining the parameters of corporate responsibility and it also provides impetus to rationalising and strengthening existing corporate responsibility initiatives.' - Ralph Hamann, African Institute of Corporate Citizenship, South Africa 'International Documents on Corporate Responsibility is an invaluable tool for all those interested in corporate responsibility. This collection of texts - enriched by the editor's insightful commentaries - provides a unique and compelling appreciation of the depth and extent of corporate responsibilities. Practitioners will use it as a guide; scholars and activists as a reference.' - Franck Amalric, University of Zurich, Switzerland"
