Human Rights and the Global Economy Journal on the Social Science Research Network
The Social Science Research Network Human Rights and the Global
Economy journal is sponsored by the Program on Human Rights and the
Global Economy (PHRGE) at Northeastern University School of Law.The
PHRGE is a forum for innovative legal work on the implications of
economic, social, and cultural rights and the impact of globalization
on all human rights.
Human Rights and the Global Economy is an interdisciplinary forum for
posting abstracts, works-in-progress and completed scholarly works
on law and policy in any of three related areas:
- International Human Rights (including individual rights to health,
food, education, housing, and culture, civil and political rights
such as equality and nondiscrimination rights and the right not to be
arbitrarily detained or tortured; as well as collective rights such
as indigenous peoples' rights, the right to development and the right
to self-determination of peoples);
- Economic and Social Development (including public health, education,
income-generation and credit, food security, housing, and
environmental sustainability as well as the legal and social
implications of large-scale technological, industrial, or
infrastructure shifts); and
- The Global Economy (including globalization, international trade and
aid policy, labor migration and out-sourcing, human trafficking, and
the impact of transnational corporate activity on the health and
living standards of workers and the environment).
We encourage scholars to submit work that addresses human rights on
the international level as well as their promotion and realization
"on the ground" in domestic and local contexts.Similarly, we invite
scholarly work that engages the implications of development or global
economic issues at community, national, and regional levels in the
Global South (including poor and otherwise marginalized communities
located in the geographic North) as well as the broader impact on
South-North law and policy as a whole.
Contributions are welcome from scholars of law, political science,
political economy, public health, development studies, gender
studies and cultural studies.
