    This PDW bridges the emerging divide between theory and practice with respect to business and human rights by incorporating management studies into the BHR debate. The PDW contribution is manifold: First, we have invited scholars from several management disciplines, business and society, international management, and organization studies to share their perspectives and questions on BHR. Second, through the use of research incubators, we hope to generate a conversation by discussing the multiple perspectives on BHR from ethics and management scholars. Third, we hope to find common leverage points for future research and discuss how to integrate BHR across the disciplines. Lastly, we hope that this PDW moves us forward in achieving our long term goal of establishing the groundwork for developing a more cohesive field in the broad management area concerning BHR.
