Economic, social and cultural rights are finally coming of age.This book brings together all essential documents, materials, and case law relating to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) - one of the most important human rights instruments in international law - and its Optional Protocol.This book presents extracts from primary materials alongside critical commentary and analysis, placing the documents in their wider contextand situating economic, social, and cultural rights within the broader human rights framework. There is increasing interest internationally, regionally, and in domestic legal systems in the protection of economic, social, and cultural rights.The Optional Protocol of 2008 allows for individual communications to be made to the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights after its entry into force in 2013.At the regional level, socio-economic rights are well embedded in human rights systems in Europe, Africa and the Americas.At the national level, constitutions and courts haveincreasingly regarded socio-economic rights as justiciable, narrowing the traditional divide with civil and political rights. This book contextualises these developments in the context of the ICESCR.It provides detailed analysis of the ICESCR structured around its articles, drawing on national as well as international case law and materials, and containing all of the key primary materials in its extensive appendices.This book is indispensible for the judiciary, human rights practitioners, government legal advisers and agencies, national human rights institutions, international organisations, regional human rightsbodies, NGOs and human rights activists, academics, and students alike.; PDF; Reference & Languages > Society & culture: general > Social issues & processes > Globalization, OUP Oxford<
