Comparative study of enabling environments for associations and businesses 2015, para. 107
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Sectoral equity is not a difficult concept to adopt. It is simply a matter of political will. The Special Rapporteur is optimistic that States can change their perception of sectoral equity, primarily because businesses and associations have a strong convergence of interests. For both sectors, the rule of law is preferable to the rule of power. Predictability trumps disorder. Fairness is better than corruption. Stable, balanced environments are better for all sectors, whether they be multinational corporations, grass-roots activist groups or major international NGOs.
