When Misfortune Becomes Injustice surveys the progress and
challenges in deploying human rights to advance health and social
equality over recent decades, with a focus on women's health and
rights. Yamin weaves together theory and firsthand experience in a
compelling narrative of how evolving legal norms, empirical
knowledge, and development paradigms have interacted in the
realization of health rights. When Misfortune Becomes Injustice
reveals extraordinary progress in recognizing health-related claims
as legal rights and understanding the policy implications of doing
so over the last few decades. Yet Yamin challenges us to consider
why these advances have failed to produce greater equality within
and between nations, and how the human rights praxis must now
urgently address threats to social and gender justice, in health
and beyond.
