title = {Empowering People in the Business Frontline: The Ruggie’s Framework and the Capability Approach},
year = {2012},
note = {This paper explains how the Ruggie’s framework for corporate human
rights performance may benefit from a relationship with the capability
approach. The capability approach is found to fit nicely with both
human rights and managerial perspectives. Among the many reciprocal
contributions these perspectives can make to each other, this paper
places a specific focus on how the capability approach can strenghten
the case for the universality of human rights by means of Nussbaum’s
list of capabilities; as well as get the Ruggie’s framework
specified in business settings by accounting for different factors of
variability and aspects of freedom. A manager-friendly 4-step flow
chart of practical reasoning is suggested and tested on the issue of
gender equality in the firm.},
