be this ambitious collection of thought-provoking and timely writings by women about the role of gender in corporate cultures and the power of women to catalyse change in the business community. Starting from the premise that regulation is never neutral, Creating Corporate Sustainability: Gender as an Agent for Change presents a compelling case for bringing a gender perspective to regulatory reforms intended to promote sustainable business practices. The collection considers how women influence corporate sustainability and is instructive for readers interested in gender-based approaches to existing and emerging business and human rights issues.The volume is organized in three parts: (I) Women as Influencers of Corporate Action, (II) Current Strategies for Corporate Sustainability and (III) Feminist Theories and Corporate Sustainability. The diverse contributors bring multi-disciplinary and feminist approaches to the study of corporate law with a focus on how gender dynamics influence corporate governance and culture. Each chapter situates the substance of its subject matter in the context of existing inequalities and power imbalance. Subjects as varied as stakeholder consultation, quotas, social enterprise and corporate reporting are covered. business ethical fair labour
