About the Book :
The concept of "human rights" has emerged during the last 65 years as the most
significant paradigm of contemporary civilization. It is a yardstick by which
nation's socio-economic health is gauged. It has empowered people to write their
own destiny. Similarly, the concept of "social security" has emerged as the
powerful policy measure of all states belonging to the socialist, capitalist and
third world; it has emerged not only as an important conceptual constituent of
the newly emerging paradigm of "Human Development" and "Human Security", but it
has also emerged as the most important socio-economic right.
