Business has the potential to impact human rights for good and for ill. Businesses may, either deliberately or unthinkingly, perpetuate the causes of social and civil unrest. While bringing economic and social benefits to some, business has the potential to disenfranchise vulnerable populations and to support those who are the most egregious perpetrators of human rights abuses. Firms have a robust potential for the advancement or deterioration of human rights in the economies in which they participate.
