Anna Grear puts forward a critical account of legal subjectivity, linking it to law's intimate relationship with liberal capitalism, in order to present the receptivity of law to the corporate form. She insists that in the field of human rights law, particularly in relation to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights paradigm, human embodied vulnerability isthe foundation of human rights and a key qualifying characteristic of the human rights subject. Theneed to redirect human rights to resist colonization by powerful economic global actors could scarcely be more urgent.
