It will enable all those who are interested in the social and economic aspects of human rights to familiarise themselves effortlessly with the most important and comprehensive European treaty in this field. For each right secured in the charter, Lenia Samuel presents the substantive rules and the interpretation of them. With its practical examples, the book makes it easy to understand the real scope of the Charter's provisions and at the same time draws a picture of the situations prevailing in the twenty states that have now ratified this instrument. This book is targeted at university students in international law, human rights and social law and to all those interested in the challenge of human social rights in Europe.
