Economic rights in Canada and the United States
by Rhoda E. Howard-Hassmann and Claude Emerson Welch
"This volume explains how economic rights are realized - or violated - in Canada and the United States.
Contributors analyze the philosophy, law, and politics of economic rights and discuss specific issues such as poverty, health care, and the rights of people with disabilities."
"Contributors consider the problem from the perspective of their own countries: Canada, the United States, and, for contrast, the Netherlands.
They do so in order to explore whether their own countries fall short of meeting international standards of economic rights.
They also address the criticism often made by non-Western scholars of human rights - that their Western colleagues preach human rights abroad without regard to the human rights flaws at home."--Jacket.
