ABSTRACT
Accountability-of government, civil society, and especially of corporations-is one of the defining imperatives of the modern global economy. Corporations now constitute half of the world’s largest economies. They dominate international finance, vastly exceeding the resources of governments and multilateral institutions as drivers of development. Yet, with this steady increase in economic might, there has been no corresponding rise in generally accepted accountability mechanisms.
