  • T.M.C. Asser Press Children’s Environmental Rights Under International and EU Law: The Changing Face of Fundamental Rights in Pursuit of Ecocentrism

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book is dedicated to a topic which has for a long time lacked the attention it deserves within the academic world. It intends to address in a coherent and comprehensive manner the problem of the environmental rights of the child, which are not identical to the ones of adults whose environmental rights have been appraised from a general point of view. In the absence of any international law instrument explicitly granting a child the right to a clean environment, drawing on an extensive and original analysis of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the practice of its monitoring body, this book undertakes an assessment of the extent to which these challenges may be overcome through a greater engagement between international law on the rights of the child and international environmental law. The result is the first comprehensive study on the manner in which these two mutually reinforcing legal regimes can interact to strengthen the protection of children’s environmental human rights at stake in the increased strategic environmental and climate litigations at both the national and international level. The book is recommended reading for, amongst others, policy makers, international environmental lawyers and human rights lawyers and practitioners. Additionally, lecturers, students and researchers from a range of disciplines will also gain from seeing how new legal scholarship and intertwined branches of international law contribute to the continual development of the living rights of the human rights conventions. Francesca Ippolito is Associate Professor of International Law in the Department of Political and Social Science of the University of Cagliari, Italy. She holds the Jean Monnet Chair on European Climate of Change - REACT for 2021-2024. Table of ContentsChapter 1.

  • Human Rights and Disability Interdisciplinary

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe formerly established medically-based idea of disability, with its charity-based approach to treatment and services, is being replaced by a human rights-based approach in which people with impairments are no longer considered medical problems, totally dependent on the beneficence of non-impaired people in society, but have fundamental rights to support, inclusion, and participation. This interdisciplinary book examines the diverse concerns that people with impairments face in the context of human rights, provides insights into new developments on important issues relating human rights to disability, and features new approaches and solutions to vital problems in the current debate.Trade ReviewDisability human rights talk is ubiquitous, but disability human rights thought is scarce. This book helps fill that gap, by subjecting human rights rhetoric to rigorous but supportive interrogation. An excellent roster of authors show us what is needed to promote the flourishing of disabled people.

    Book SynopsisThis book explores the convergence of law and public policy. Drawing on case studies from Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Australia, it examines how judicial and political institutions are closely linked to the socio-economic concerns of the citizens. The essays argue for the utilization of both legislative and executive, private and public spheres of society as vehicles for transformative social change and to safeguard against violations of socio-economic rights.The volume will be of great interest to both public and private stakeholders, as well as professionals, including NGOs and think tanks, working in the areas of law, government, and public policy. It will also be immensely useful to academics and researchers of constitutionalism, policymaking and policy integration, social justice and minority rights.Trade Review‘Ranging from the local to the global, the contributions collected in this remarkable volume make a persuasive case for the alignment of public policy and law demonstrating that the notions of justice underpinning them are not revealed but constructed.’—Armando Barrientos, Professor Emeritus of Poverty and Social Justice, Global Development Institute, University of Manchester, U.K.‘Grounded in empirical research and rooted in theories of social justice, Transformative Law and Public Policy explores the shifting intersections between law and public policy in the developing world. Its detailed case studies and reflective essays provide an engaging view of how those two realms can come together to address poverty and build more inclusive societies.’—Joan Dassin, Professor, Heller School for Social Policy and Management, Brandeis University ‘The weaving together of different public policy areas and the application of the law offers a deeper understanding of the realities on the ground that resonates with many countries in the Global South. The book is a great resource not only for academia but public policy architects and implementers as well.’—Grace Bantebya-Kyomuhendo, Professor, Makerere University‘Critically important book to social scientists and legal scholars interested in current debates about international public policy and law. It contains up to date information and discerning commentaries that will be of value to scholars everywhere. It deserves to be widely read.’—James Midgley, Professor of the Graduate School, University of California, BerkeleyTable of ContentsPreface. 1. Why is law central to policy processes in Global South?
