Social rights as human rights

Globalizing social protection

Ramesh Mishra

School of Social Work, York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M3J 1P3, rmishra{at}cogeco.ca

English

The United Nations' Covenant on social rights is universal in form but applies to countries with widely differing levels of economic development. The resultant hiatus impedes the Covenant's effectiveness. The formulation of social standards commensurate with countries' economic capacities is outlined as a solution.

French

L'hiatus résultant empêche l'efficacité de la'Convention. L'élaboration des normes sociales qui correspondent â la capacité économique de nations est offerte en tant que solution.

Spanish

El Convenio de las Nacionas Unidas sobre derechos sociales es universal en la forma, pero concierne a naciones con grandes diferencias de desarrollo económico.
