The International Law on the Rights of the Child (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789041110916)

This volume draws upon the author's own experience to highlight the complexities behind the global violations of children's rights. Analysis and description are interwoven to provide a coherent study of the international status of children and the rights which attach to this status, both for those familiar and unfamiliar with international law. The author demonstrates the potential of international law in protecting the rights of children, even in states which are restructuring their economies. To be effective, international law cannot be used in isolation and the text seeks to place the rights of the child in their cultural and historical contexts.
All royalties from The International Law on the Rights of the Child are being donated to the International Save the Children Alliance to assist them in their work with children.
