Description
Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) The Right to the Continuous Improvement of Living Conditions: Responding to Complex Global Challenges by Edited by Jessie Hohmann Edited by Beth Goldblatt
What does the right to the continuous improvement of living conditions really mean and how can it be translated into actual social change? The book explores how this underdeveloped right can be applied in real terms to global problems of poverty and inequality and asks what exactly is covered by ‘living conditions’. It locates the right within the broader philosophical and political context and considers its application to issues of gender and care whilst also exploring the challenges to its realisation. This collection includes chapters from 15 legal scholars working across five continents.
