Rights is the answer: Social Watch Report 2008
The world faces a global emergency created by the confluence of an unprecedented financial crisis, rising food prices, climate change and growing inequities. Civil society groups from around the world show in this report how human rights are being violated as a direct consequence of the same global economic order that created this chaos. After the failure of mainstream strategies, the abandoned principles of social justice and a rights-based aproach to development are an essential component of any solution.

Rights in the time of crisis, Roberto Bissio
Human rights and the economic system, Roberto Bissio
The EU’s legal and financial structure: implications for basic human rights
