International Journal of Human Rights and Constitutional Studies (IJHRCS), Vol. 3, No. 3, 2015

Abstract: Economic growth and potential of many states are reliant on transnational corporations (TNCs). Despite the fact that TNCs contribute to the world's economy, they are often accused of human rights abuses. This paper examines how the laws that are applicable in Kenya control the behaviour of TNCs and prevents human rights violations by them. The paper further looks at the different measures that can be put in place to prevent human rights violations by the TNCs. In doing so, this paper explores the relationship between the interdisciplinary fields of investment law and human rights.
