Description and Table of Contents

Description

This work explores economic, social and cultural rights from two perspectives, theoretical and procedural. It aims to provide a better understanding of economic, social and cultural rights, encouraging greater consistency between these and civil and political rights. The status of economic, social and cultural rights as human rights is analysed, with reference to political, philosophical and legal factors. The book also examines the supervisory mechanism of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, discussing the possibilities for its improvement. A draft Optional Protocol to the Covenant is presented on the basis of the results of the procedural analysis. The School of Human Rights Research series explores the nature and meaning of international standards in the field of human rights, their application and promotion in the national legal order, their interplay with national standards and the international supervision of such application.
