Human Rights and Development
The emergence of human rights within development and the evolving relationship was increasingly brought to bear upon key debates and policies over the last couple of decades.This book provides a critically informed, comprehensive and multi-disciplinary entry-level account of this engagement between human rights and development.It is theoretically and practically grounded and explores three over-arching questions and themes: First, why and how have human rights made this breakthrough?Second, is there agreement on human rights as a concept and how it is being used and understood within diverse development practices at global, national and local levels?Third, how can we gauge the impact of human rights based approaches upon development outcomes?The book concludes with what the future may hold for human rights and development.In-depth understanding of human rights as a development challenge and development as a human rights one, is presented and delineates the diverse responses and alternative critical approaches.Wide ranging in scope, it covers many examples of human rights within development, including global policy initiatives, and vulnerable groups, such as those living in poverty, socially excluded, people living with HIV/AIDS, residents of informal settlements, and human rights defenders. This textbook will be an essential resource for social science students, particularly in the fields of development studies, human rights and geography, as well as those interested in the intersection between law, human rights and social change.It should also appeal to practitioners in development and human rights.

Women's rights are human rights
Attaining equality between women and men and eliminating all forms of discrimination against women are fundamental human rights and United Nations values.Women around the world nevertheless regularly suffer violations of their human rights throughout their life, and realizing women's human rights has not always been prioritized.Achieving equality between women and men requires a comprehensive understanding of the ways in which women experience discrimination and are denied equality so as to develop appropriate strategies to eliminate such discrimination.This publication provides an introduction to women's human rights, beginning with the main provisions in international human rights law and going on to explain particularly relevant concepts for fully understanding women's human rights.

Children’s Rights and Children’s Development: An Integrated Approach
Offers an assessment of how children’s rights take shape and are realized at various stages of child development and, in turn, can and should inform law and policyChildren’s rights and child development frameworks are critical to understanding children’s lived experiences, advancing child wellbeing, and implementing children’s rights.However, research in the two fields has proceeded largely on separate tracks.Children’s Rights and Child Development seeks to forge opportunities to deepen understanding about children’s rights in light of the scientific research on child development to inform fresh perspectives on research, law, and policy affecting children. Drawing on existing literature, studies, and research, Children’s Rights and Child Development provides an in-depth examination of the fundamental stages in childhood development—early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence.The book goes beyond the often very general language in law and policies that considers children as a homogenous group.It delineates how the rights of young people can be understood at each stage of development and how this can, and should, inform law and policy on children’s rights. Integrating children’s perspectives with the expertise from leading scholars in children’s rights and child development, Todres and Kilkelly reveal how an integrated approach to child rights and child development can be most impactful to child advocacy.This book is essential reading for anyone interested in child advocacy, offering insight into how the rights of young people can be understood at different stages of development, in a developmentally appropriate and rights compliant manner.

The European Union and Global Development : A Rights-based Development Policy?
This book systematically analyses the EU’s commitment to a human rights-based approach to development through the lens of global justice theory.It identifies limits to the EU’s approach and discusses how standardised policies, particularly in the case of human rights sanctions, may be perceived as neo-colonially intrusive and can come at the cost of recognizing the experiences and interests of vulnerable groups and allowing for partner countries’ democratic ownership of their own development trajectory.Engaging with primary sources including official documents, reports, and 45 semi-structured interviews with EU and member state officials, the book also presents a novel explanation for why the EU, at times, steps out of its commitment to rights-based development and chooses differentiated foreign policy responses to similar situations.This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of EU foreign policy, EU development policy human rights, and international relations as well as policy practitioners working in the fields of development, human rights and democracy promotion.
