Sumario:Although it is increasingly common to find, among the most specialised doctrine, those who defend the recognition of binding legal obligations to companies in the field of human rights, the debate remains highly polarised. Positioning ourselves within the framework of theories on global governance, in these pages, we will defend the pragmatism of the Ruggie Principles and their convenient complementarity with a future international treaty. Now, if on the one hand we understand that the development and implementation of the United Nations Principles must proceed through the reinforcement of a victim-based approach, on the other hand we believe that the contours of a future international treaty will have to be delimited with an adequate degree of technical precision, as with a sufficient level of generality and abstraction. So in this sense, proposals to reform the so-called Draft 0 of the future international treaty on companies and rights will be formulated.
