Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. With a contribution by Nobel Prize-winner Amartya Sen and forewords by Navanethem Pillay, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and Louise Arbour, former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights The relationship between the processes of economic development and international human rights standards has been one of parallel and rarely intersecting tracks of international action. In the last decade of the 20th century, development thinking shifted from a growth-oriented model to the concept of human development as a process of enhancing human capabilities, and the intrinsic links between development and human rights began to be more readily acknowledged. Specifically, it has been proposed that if strategies of development and policies to implement human rights are united, they reinforce one another in processes of synergy and improvement of the human condition. Such is the premise of the Declaration on the Right to Development, adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1986.This book explores the meaning and practical implications of the right to development and the related term of human rights-based approaches to development and questions what these conceptions may add to our understanding and thinking about human and global development. Opening with an essay by Nobel Laureate in Economic Science Amartya Sen on human rights and development, the book contains a score of chapters on the conceptual underpinnings of development as a human right, the national dimensions of this right, and the role of international institutions. The authors reflect the disciplines of philosophy, economics, international law, and international relations. This 2nd edition of the book, originally published in 2006, has been completely updated. Most essays presented at The Nobel Symposium on the Right to Development and Human Rights in Development (Oslo, 2003) and originally published in 2006. Essays revised and updated with a new foreword. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
