Abstract

Since privatized regulation processes have been widely criticized for ruling out more democratic forms of regulation, multistakeholder consultation, dialogue, negotiation, roundtables and initiatives, designed to define collective international sustainability standards, are viewed as more legitimate – even ‘democratic' - features of Corporate Social Responsibility policies. In this paper, we focus on the participation of producer countries governments to labour standard-setting and –monitoring initiatives. We analyze two of them which are very similar in their design and objectives but display contrasting governmental involvement in order to evaluate the importance of the role of local governments for the efficiency of supply chain monitoring initiatives.
