MONITORING STATE COMPLIANCE WITH THE UN CONVENT...

This open access book presents a discussion on human rights-based attributes for each article
pertinent to the substantive rights of children  as defined in the United Nations Convention on
the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). It provides the reader with a unique and clear overview of the
scope and core content of the articles  together with an analysis of the latest jurisprudence
of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child. For each article of the UNCRC  the authors
explore the nature and scope of corresponding State obligations  and identify the main features
that need to be taken into consideration when assessing a State's progressive implementation of
the UNCRC. This analysis considers which aspects of a given right are most important to track 
in order to monitor States' implementation of any given right  and whether there is any
resultant change in the lives of children. This approach transforms the narrative of legal
international standards concerning a given right into a set of characteristics that ensure no
aspect of said right is overlooked. The book develops a clear and comprehensive understanding
of the UNCRC that can be used as an introduction to the rights and principles it contains  and
to identify directions for future policy and strategy development in compliance with the UNCRC.
As such  it offers an invaluable reference guide for researchers and students in the field of
childhood and children's rights studies  as well as a wide range of professionals and
organisations concerned with the subject.
