A long road was necessary for economic and social rights to be internationally recognized. In fact, it was only after the Second World War that the protection of human rights, including economic and social rights, became one of the aims of the United Nations. Despite that, this legal protection was by no means made without controversies, especially when it comes to economic and social rights. The fact that most of the articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights refer to civil and political rights corroborates these difficulties. Only articles 22 through 27 protected economic and social rights. The objective of this article is to shed some light into this process, as the Universal Declaration has been the foundation of the codification of the whole human rights system. Particular attention will be given to the discussions around the inclusion of article 25 that refers to the right to an adequate standard of living. It is interesting to analyze how this right was adopted during the process of elaboration of the Declaration, as it was then incorporated by so many texts and influenced the recognition of other rights. In fact, if today we are able to have autonomous rights to water, to health, to food, to housing and to education, it is thanks to the proclamation of the right to an adequate standard of living in the first place.

Abstract: Prostitution is a community disease that is difficult to eradicate due to many factors that affect its existence. The various types of prostitution that emerged show how prostitution has grown in society. The condition is further complicated when prostitution seeks to seek protection under human rights. Prostitution seeks the path of protection under human rights through two essentials: Protection of human rights to the work of sex workers and protection of minority status opposed by the wider community. On the other hand, there is a distinction between liberal Westernmade human rights and human rights according to Islam in accordance with the sunatullah, so that the distinction raises different perceptions regarding the issue of prostitution. This paper will reveal whether prostitution is a profession that should be protected as a right to work in human rights, as well as finding the right way out to avoid conflict of interest in human rights so that peace and tranquility can be realizedin society.

The paper analyzes certain important aspects of the procedural position of persons with mental disabilities in the procedures for deprivation of legal capacity. Regardless of the normative framework, both international and national, which largely protects the rights of this sensitive group of people, a significant number of cases before the European Court of Human Rights and decisions in which Contracting States are declared responsible indicate that there is a problem of their procedural position that is principally conditioned by applying (or not applying) the procedural safeguards provided by Article 6 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, or the right to a fair trial. Although this right is guaranteed for all civil and criminal procedures and for all persons, the special features of persons with mental disabilities also determine the particularities in the application of the right to a fair trial in the court procedures in which these persons are involved. Therefore, we could talk about formulated specific standards that essentially elaborate one of the key concepts of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities - "reasonable adaptation", as well as a direct link to the need for a specific application of the already mentioned Article 6 of the European Convention. The standards that follow from the application of Article 6 are numerous and the analysis of all from the aspect of protecting the rights of persons with mental disabilities is not possible in the paper of this volume, and therefore, special attention was given to the right of these persons to initiate and conduct the procedures for deprivation of legal capacity, personal participation and representation in that procedures.

In October 1997, a little-noticed event took place at the United Nations that may roll back the international legal protection of human rights. Jamaica became the first country to denounce the Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), and thus withdrew the right of individual petition to the UN Human Rights Committee (Committee). Although it is provided for under the Protocol’s Article 12, no state has previously made such a denunciation.

Abstract The overall findings of this research point to a mix of positive and negative human rights impacts of the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and on the visitor economy of the host city. On a positive note, affirmative action included persons with disabilities and from underprivileged communities in the workforce. New sports and leisure centres were built. Freedom of expression and association was reinforced by protesters demonstrating and using the platform of the event to raise issues. Several initiatives by the Organizing Committee, government, companies, and associations constituted positive mechanisms for leverage of the human rights to education and to participate in the cultural life of the community, albeit with limited long-term impacts. These wider economic and social successes associated with the hosting of the Games can positively contribute to the quality and inclusivity of the visitor economy. redevelopment, the Games' land use displaced thousands of people, violating the right to housing and several other human rights through abusive practices used by the government in the eviction process. Under the pretext of creating safe spaces for visitors and safeguarding their image of the city, the government's violence towards poor and black communities was aggravated, with the militarisation of the city impacting on the right to life, protection, education, and justice. Attempting to mask the city's socio-economic problems and undesirable aspects for sponsors and visitors, freedom of expression was undermined as protesters were targeted by the police and street vendors were driven out of public spaces.

Work is essential for every human being, not only in economic meaning, but also in the sense of dignity. It guarantees to sustain life and also a tool of inclusion as a vital social relationship in a society. Dignity outlines the principle of equality to form an inclusive society. Thereunto, a social inclusion is an objective whereby disadvantaged groups are fully respected yet enjoying their maximum equal participation in the society. Social inclusion is the ultimate goal of disability movements. In this respect, human rights play its crucial roles to acknowledge the rights of persons with disabilities which centered on an equality and non-discrimination principles. United Nation Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (hereinafter CRPD), that has been ratified by Indonesian Government in 2011, draws the enormous attention specifically on the protection of the persons with disabilities within a broad application of general human rights norms. This treaty is considered as a modern human rights model of disability. With respect to work and employment for persons with disability, article 27 elucidates a development of the right to work of persons with disabilities to aim an inclusive employment. For this reasons, CRPD acknowledges the positive measures to be applied as the vigorous means in removing structural barriers to date. Abstrak“Bekerja” memegang peranan penting dalam kehidupan umat manusia, tidak hanya dalam arti ekonomi namun juga bermakna pemuliaan martabat manusia. Bekerja, selain dapat  menjamin penghidupan, juga merupakan alat pencapaian inklusi dan partisipasi setara dalam relasi sosial. Martabat manusia menjadi landasan prinsip kesetaraan untuk membentuk masyarakat inklusif dimana kelompok rentan secara penuh dihormati hak-haknya hingga dapat berpartisipasi secara maksimal di tengah-tengah masyarakat. Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM) memegang peranan penting dalam hal ini, khususnya terkait dengan pemajuan hak-hak penyandang disabilitas dalam kerangka prinsip-prinsip kesetaraan dan non-diskriminasi. Konvensi Persatuan Bangsa-Bangsa tentang Hak-hak Penyandang Disabilitas (Atau selanjutnya disebut CRPD) yang telah diratifikasi  oleh Pemerintah Indonesia pada tahun 2011, meletakkan dasar yang kokoh bagi perlindungan hak-hak penyandang disabilitas dalam penerapan kaidah-kaidah dasar HAM. Konvensi ini dianggap sebagai model disabilitas terkini yang mengacu pada pendekatan HAM. Terkait dengan hak atas pekerjaan khususnya untuk penyandang disabilitas, pasal 27 CRPD meletakkannya dalam rangka mencapai dunia kerja yang inklusif dan setara. Untuk itu, CRPD mendorong langkah-langkah positif (positive measures) sebagai sarana menyingkirkan hambatan struktural yang dihadapi oleh penyandang disabilitas selama ini.
