At a time of great change, turmoil, and contradiction in international human rights law and politics, authors Jeanne M. Woods and Hope Lewis have responded to the growing need for a classroom text that focuses squarely on economic, social, and cultural rights—"the neglected step-children of the human rights family"—and their intimate inter-relationship to civil and political rights.

Students and instructors will find the results informative and provocative. Intended for use in law school, graduate, and undergraduate survey courses, as well as seminars on human rights, this book will be useful for teachers using both international and comparative approaches.

The text is divided into four accessible parts:

I. "Human Rights and the Global Marketplace: Discursive Themes" introduces the nature and scope of human rights discourse.

II. "International Instruments and Their Implementation" takes students through an array of international and regional human rights treaties that address economic, social, and cultural rights.

III. "Power, Politics, and Poverty: Structural Challenges to the Realization of Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights" addresses major controversies in, and barriers to, the realization of socio-economic and cultural rights.

IV. "Comparative Approaches" is valuable for international human rights, comparative law, and comparative constitutional law courses.

Throughout the book, the authors provide notes, questions, and further reading suggestions to stimulate classroom discussion, debate, and research. The volume also includes valuable appendices, with a bibliography of relevant texts and articles and a selection of NGOs that focus on these issues.

Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.
