A
Research handbook on economic, social and cultural rights as human rights which was recently published is co-edited by SERI board members Jackie Dugard and Lilian Chenwi. The Research Handbook "offers an authoritative analysis of standards and jurisprudence" and "ultimately argues that "a robust, reinforced approach and practice is needed to meet the human rights challenges of the 2020s".
"Contested and marginalized in legal research, the field of economic, social and cultural rights has experienced a bloom in scholarly attention over the past ten years. With contributions by leading scholars and practitioners, this Research Handbook represents an up-to-date and in-depth analysis of the most salient mechanisms, doctrines and cross-cutting issues in the field. It constitutes an indispensable resource for policy-makers, scholars and advocates interested in the contribution of human rights to the eradication of poverty and inequality."
