This issue of the Review targets a variety of concerns that are relevant with regard to the general issue of housing rights and forced evictions. It is dedicated to the promotion of economic and social rights by means of parallel reporting to the United Nations Committee on economic, social and cultural rights. The book explains how to participate in the committee’s review, along with interactive debate on the evaluation of the reasoning of Sri Lanka’s Supreme Court in the Mundy case that can be used for workshops and background reading.
