Amnesty International 2005, 80 Seiten

Hunger, homelessness and preventable disease can no longer be treated as though they were inevitable social ills or solely the product of natural disasters - they are a human rights scandal.

This human rights primer outlines key features of economic, social and cultural rights. It highlights not only the obligations of governments within their own countries but also their international obligations, and the human rights responsibilities of international organizations and corporations.

This primer also shows what can be achieved by determined campaigning. It makes the case that economic, social and cultural rights are an integral part of the human rights agenda.
