Resumen
Desgraciadamente, en pleno siglo XXI los Derechos Humanos siguen sin ser respetados en muchos países, principalmente en aquellos en vías de desarrollo. Ante esta situación, organismos internacionales como la ONU están desplazando el foco de responsabilidad, que tradicionalmente estaba puesto en de los Estados, hacia las empresas multinacionales. Por consiguiente, se avanza hacia un co-protagnonismo público-privado en el respeto a los Derechos Humanos. Pero no se trata solo de “proteger” y “respetar” los DDHH sino de “remediar”, siguiendo las tres claves de los Principios Rectores ONU, las vulneraciones de DDHH, mejorando el acceso a la justicia de las víctimas que sufren su vulneración por parte de las multinacionales. En este trabajo se examina, de un lado, los principales instrumentos internacionales; posteriormente, se analizan desde un punto de vista práctico los problemas a los que se enfrentan las víctimas; y, finalmente, se exponen algunas vías para garantizar su acceso a la justicia y, en definitiva, reparación.
Unfortunately, in the XXI century Human Rights are still not respected in many countries, mainly in those in the process of development. Faced with this situation, international organizations such as the UN are shifting the focus of responsibility, which was traditionally placed on States, to multinational companies. Therefore, progress is being made towards a public-private co-protagonistism in respect for Human Rights. But it is not only a question of "protecting" and "respecting" human rights, but of "remedying", following the three keys of the UN Guiding Principles, human rights violations, improving access to justice for victims who suffer their violation by multinationals. This paper examines, on the one hand, the main international instruments; subsequently, the problems faced by victims are analysed from a practical point of view; and, finally, some ways are presented to guarantee their access to justice and, ultimately, reparation.
