Conclusion
Markos Karavias is a Senior Researcher at the Amsterdam Center for International Law, University of Amsterdam. He has previously acted as a Special Advisor to the Greek Minister for Environment, Energy and Climate Change. Markos Karavias hold a DPhil from the University of Oxford.
Karavias should be credited for his rigorous analysis of the
positive law in this field, where the waters have been sometimes
muddied by activist lawyers. He should be praised for injecting an
insight into the debate which has so far received fairly little
attention: the problématique of the corporation as both a human
rights obligor (addressee of human rights obligations) and a human
rights holder (beneficiary of human rights). What the status of a
rights-holder means for its status as a rights-obligor has, to my
knowledge, never been tackled as lucidly as it is by Karavias.
