The right to access information is explored in this book. The focus
is on the South African law – said to be the "strongest access to
information law in the world" – but there is an international
perspective, with contributions from India, Bulgaria, the United
Kingdom and the United States. This title argues that for the right
to information to be meaningful it must extend beyond nation-state
governments to transnational corporations and multilateral
organisations such as the World Bank. The right to access
information is not only an important civil and political right. It
is also a socio-economic right, enabling the full realisation of
other socio-economic rights such as the right to welfare, housing
or education.
