Human Rights and Civil Liberties

Economic, social and cultural rights - such as labor rights, and the rights to food, health, education, housing, and culture - make up half of the international catalogue of human rights. Their importance has, however, been consistently downgraded. The reasons are partly political and ideological and partly a reflection of the range and complexity of the issues which these rights address. This Bibliography offers the first ever systematic guide to the voluminous literature on these issues and will be an indispensable starting point for anyone seeking to understand or research any of the relevant rights.
