The embrace of socio-economic rights in South Africa has featured
prominently in scholarship on constitution making, legal
jurisprudence and social mobilisation. But the development has
attracted critics who claim that this turn to rights has not
generated social transformation in practice. This book sets out to
assess one part of the puzzle and asks what has been the role and
impact of socio-economic strategies used by civil society actors.
Focusing on a range of socio-economic rights and national trends in
law and political economy, the book's authors show how
socio-economic rights have influenced the development of civil
society discourse and action. The evidence suggests that some
strategies have achieved material and political impact but this is
conditional on the nature of the claim, degree of mobilisation and
alliance building, and underlying constraints.
