Bruno Tesch was tried and executed for his company's Zyklon B gas used in Nazi Germany's extermination camps. This book examines this trial and the more than 300 other economic actors who faced prosecution for the Holocaust's crimes against humanity. It further tracks and analyses similar transitional justice mechanisms for holding economic actors accountable for human rights violations in dictatorships and armed conflict: international, foreign, and domestic trials and truth commissions from the 1970s to the present in every region of the world. This book probes what these accountability efforts are, why they take place, and when, where, and how they unfold. Analysis of the authors' original database leads them to conclude that 'corporate accountability from below' is underway, particularly in Latin America. A kind of Archimedes' lever places the right tools in weak local actors' hands to lift weighty international human rights claims, overcoming the near absence of international pressure and the powerful veto power of business.

The rights of victims to truth, justice, reparations and guarantees of non-repetition when businesses are involved in past and present abuses are seldom guaranteed. A legacy of impunity has prevailed globally in which economic actors have incurred few legal or financial (indemnity) costs for violating behaviour. Examining cases in Nazi Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Honduras, Perú, the Philippines and South Africa, this edited volume traces business accountability efforts. It identifies the tools applicable to different country contexts that have facilitated corporate accountability for human rights violations, while also flagging the barriers that persist. This volume presents the past and the present of accountability for corporations complicit in gross human rights violations, and also considers what the future may hold.

El establecimiento de la Comisión para el Esclarecimiento de la Verdad, la Convivencia y la no Repetición (CEV) es un avance decidido en los esfuerzos de esclarecimiento y rendición de cuentas de las más graves violaciones de derechos humanos cometidas en el marco del conflicto armado colombiano. Si bien sus retos son enormes, las posibilidades que abre este nuevo mecanismo han generado una gran expectativa en la sociedad colombiana y, especialmente, en las víctimas del conflicto.Uno de los retos que enfrenta la CEV es abordar de la mejor manera posible el rol que jugó la complicidad empresarial en la comisión de graves violaciones de derechos humanos. La información judicial y académica existente demuestra que dicha complicidad no ha sido aislada. Igualmente, la información de experiencias comparadas muestra, por un lado, que estas relaciones son comunes en conflictos armados o regímenes autoritarios y, por el otro, que las comisiones de la verdad pueden jugar un papel muy importante en su develación. De hecho, 22 comisiones de la verdad en el mundo han revelado ciertos patrones de participación de terceros en la comisión de graves violaciones de derechos humanos.El presente informe tiene como objetivo contribuir a la definición de lineamientos que permitirán a la CEV una aproximación estratégica, planeada y sensible frente a esta problemática. Para ello, un grupo de investigación conjunto integrado por académicos del Centro de Estudios Latinoamericanos y el Departamento de Sociología de la Universidad de Oxford en el Reino Unido y del Centro de Estudios de Derecho, Justicia y Sociedad – Dejusticia, en Colombia, unimos esfuerzos por casi dos años para producir información empírica relevante que sustente la toma de decisiones de la CEV en esta materia.
