Abstract

Supply chains laws are not only legal and legitimate from the perspective of international law; they are even required by both international law and EU law. Otherwise a "democratic and equitable international order" will remain elusive. The European Commission has recognised this in its recent proposal for a Directive on Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence.
