It analyzes the core economic and social rights and the crucial topic of non-discrimination, and includes an innovative section on 'meta' rights. The main chapters answer important questions about economic and social rights performance around the world by emphasizing the obstacles that prevent governments from fulfilling their obligations. The interdisciplinary analysis offers a detailed and up-to-date discussion to help scholars and policy makers find the best ways to instantiate economic and social rights. The authors examine the role of the associated obligations, and especially the obstacles to respect, protect and fulfil those obligations. The book's introductory and concluding chapters address conceptual issues and correct mistakes often made by critics of economic and social rights"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000887963 650_0 $$aHuman rights$$xEconomic aspects. 000887963 650_0 $$aHuman rights$$xSocial aspects. 000887963 7001_ $$aMinkler, Lanse. 000887963 852__ $$bebk 000887963 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1099913$$zOnline Access 000887963 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:887963$$pGLOBAL_SET 000887963 980__ $$aEBOOK 000887963 980__ $$aBIB 000887963 982__ $$aEbook 000887963 983__ $$aOnline
