Socio-economic rights raise many complex challenges to the traditional understanding of the nature of human rights, the role of courts in democratic society and the nature of remedies. This collection draws together the sophisticated and constructive solutions developed by the foremost thinkers to fully recognise socio-economic rights, demonstrating how traditional concepts and obstacles can be re-characterised and modified to ensure respect for the indivisibility of human rights.This important collection provides crucial insights into the emerging and perennial challenges to socio-economic rights. Including an original introduction, it is an ideal resource for those new to the study of socio-economic rights, academics, policy makers and all those interested in using human rights to achieve social justice.

Recensioner i media

‘The Universal Declaration of Human Rights recognised both civil and political rights, on the one hand, and economic and social rights on the other. Yet, until recently far more scholarly attention had been paid to civil and political rights than to economic and social rights. Happily, that has begun to change and the last two decades have seen increasing scholarly attention paid to economic and social rights as well as an emerging jurisprudence on their protection and fulfilment in jurisdictions across the globe. Sandra Fredman and Meghan Campbell have gathered together in one volume some of the most important published work by leading scholars in relation to economic and social rights. The book also includes a fine introduction to the topic written by Sandra Fredman, which provides a clear and helpful outline of current debates. I have no doubt that the book will serve as an invaluable resource for students, scholars, practising lawyers, judges and policy makers, and that it will serve as a spur to further scholarly work in the field.’
