What is it about?
This chapter introduces a framework that allows one to state the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of long-term full human-rights-friendly development and to describe the dilemmas that are generated when moving away from full human rights friendliness, locally and internationally. It describes the main human rights interfaces of businesses and governments to point out the need to work toward the promotion and implementation of proactive private–public human-rights-friendly development models that are based on the notion of self-interest regulation consistency. The possible human-rights-friendly business models and government models are listed to point out the nature of a possible full human-rights-friendly development model or sustainable development model. The chapter shows, using qualitative comparative theoretical tools, how business self-interest can be framed to be human rights friendly through effective monitoring and enforcement. It highlights the dilemmas generated when relaxing local and international monitoring and enforcement mechanisms partially or totally.

Why is it important?

Perspectives
Without linking sustainable development to human rights issues it is not possible to ensure responsible local and global sustainable development so the need to understand the links human rights and sustainable development is essential.
