The principles of equality and non-discrimination lie at the heart
of international human rights law. They are the only human rights
explicitly included in the UN Charter and they appear at the
beginning of virtually every major human rights instrument. This
volume contains selected works by leading authors on the subject of
equality and non-discrimination under international law. The
selections are grouped into four sections. The first presents
essays that explore theoretical concepts of equality and
non-discrimination. The next addresses the development of
international legal standards on the subject. The third presents
articles analyzing how those standards have been interpreted and
applied by UN and regional human rights bodies, and the last
contains works on what measures besides legal action States are to
take to in order to achieve equality and non-discrimination.
