Companies in a world of conflict: NGOs, sanctions and corporate responsibility
- London: Earthscan (on behalf of RIIA), 1998
- 320p.
Papers from a workshop held in Oslo by the Royal Institute of International Affairs April 1997 and sponsored by the Norwegian oli company Statoil. The book identifies the problems companies face in the new era of globalization focussing in particular on the international petroleum corporations. Actions are no longer solely driven by simple economic considerations, companies, like governments and international organizations, have also to consider conflicts of values and national interests. The Shell company is used extensively as an example in this work.
