Human Rights in the Private Sphere

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of international human rights law and private life, this study explores how issues in labor relations, race, discrimination, and violence against women can be addressed within this legal framework. It emphasizes that protecting privacy does not preclude acknowledging wrongs in private contexts. By analyzing the rights under the European Convention on Human Rights and their application in UK courts, the book presents a compelling argument against the notion that these rights are irrelevant in individual relationships.
