Synopsis

This book examines the understudied area of subnational human rights and the human rights economy.

Against the context of increasing economic and political power of local level governments - both cities and subnational regions - this interdisciplinary volume provides a crucial examination of economic policies that are grounded in human rights principles and obligations while being implemented in the places people live. Policies which promote economic justice and prosperity present many opportunities and challenges, and this book proposes ways in which local economic policies can respect, protect, and fulfil human rights, with positive multiplier effects at the national and global levels.

This book will be of keen interest to scholars, students and practitioners in human rights, economics, law, development, and urban studies; and professionals and policymakers involved in local economic development planning and the implementation of human rights norms.
