Human rights, politics, and development --
Development and human rights in India --
The United Nations Development Programme --
The United Nations Children's Fund --
Other UN agencies involved in rights-based approaches --
Strategies and outcomes of rights-based approaches --
Conclusion: new ways of pursuing human rights promotion.
In this book, Joel E. Oestreich presents the first full-length study of how international agencies evaluate the rights situation in a single country, and the first study to look at both the good and the bad in a rights-based approach. Development and Humans Rights ultimately considers how rights-based approaches fit in the traditional discourse on human rights, and the ability of these agencies to initiate meaningful change on state behavior in the rights arena." -- Inside cover
