Role OSN v regulaci transnacionálních korporací v oblasti lidských práv

With a growing influence of transnational corporations (TNCs) came a need to regulate these international relations’ actors with regard to human rights, which TNCs often violate. The UN was one of the international organisations that focused on regulating TNCs and the UN’s efforts to do so still continue today. The aim of this bachelor’s thesis is to find out which instruments the UN uses to regulate TNCs regarding human rights. The first part of this work focuses on the concept of TNCs, and a brief description of their regulations concerning human rights. The next part of this work focuses on the UN’s efforts to regulate TNCs with regard to human rights, its initiative UN Global Compact, and its efforts to regulate TNCs made under the UNHRC.
