Litigating health rights: can courts bring more justice to health?
Alicia Ely Yamin & Siri Gloppen (eds.)
Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press (2011)
Abstract
This book examines the potential of litigation as a strategy to advance the right to health by holding governments accountable for these obligations. It asks who benefits both directly and indirectly—and what the overall impacts on health equity are. Included are case studies from Costa Rica, South Africa, India, Brazil, Argentina and Colombia.
