Core Socio-Economic Rights and the European Court of Human Rights
Core
Socio-Economic Rights and the European Court of Human Rights deals with
socio-economic rights in the context of the jurisprudence of the
European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). The book connects the ECtHR's
socio-economic case law to an understanding of the Court's
responsibility to recognize the limitations of supranational rights
adjudication while protecting the most needy. By exploring the idea of
core rights protection in constitutional and international law, a new
perspective is developed that offers suggestions for improving the
ECtHR's reasoning in socio-economic cases as well as contributing to the
debate on indivisible rights adjudication in an age of 'rights
inflation' and proportionality review. Core Socio-Economic Rights and
the European Court of Human Rights will interest scholars and
practitioners dealing with fundamental rights and especially those
interested in judicial reasoning, socio-economic and supranational
rights protection.
