The article deals with the question of whether and why international human rights law should protect corporations at the example of regional economic integration systems such as the European Union. For the European Court of Justice, granting human rights to corporations is the natural response to the key role that private companies play in the integration program. Regional human rights courts, in contrast, partly struggle to recognise corporations as human rights holders. The article critically examines the theoretical raison d’être of fundamental rights of corporations, granted in the framework of international human rights, and reflects on them on the basis of a Rule of Law-postulate.

作为国际人权的公司基本权利：地区经济法院的视角

本文以欧盟等区域经济一体化体系为例，讨论了国际人权法是否以及为何应该保护企业的问题。对于欧洲法院来说，赋予企业人权是对私营企业在一体化计划中发挥关键作用的自然反应。相比之下，地区人权法院在某种程度上难以承认企业为人权持有者。本文批判性地审视了国际人权框架内赋予公司基本权利的理论存在理由，并在法治假设的基础上对其进行了反思。
