This eJournal distributes working and accepted paper abstracts on law and policy in any of three related areas:

• International Human Rights (including individual rights to health, food, education, housing, and culture, civil and political rights such as equality and nondiscrimination rights and the right not to be arbitrarily detained or tortured; as well as collective rights such as indigenous peoples' rights, the right to development and the right to self-determination of peoples):
• Economic and Social Development (including public health, education, income-generation and credit, food security, housing, and environmental sustainability as well as the legal and social implications of large-scale technological, industrial, or infrastructure shifts); and
• The Global Economy (including globalization, international trade and aid policy, labor migration and "out-sourcing", human trafficking, and the impact of transnational corporate activity on the health and living standards of workers and the environment).

We encourage scholars to submit work that addresses human rights on the international level as well as their promotion and realization "on the ground" in domestic and local contexts. Similarly, we invite scholarly work that engages the implications of development or global economic issues at community, national, and regional levels in the Global South (including poor and otherwise marginalized communities located in the geographic North) as well as the broader impact on South-North law and policy as a whole.

Contributions are welcome from scholars of law, political science, political economy, public health, development studies, gender studies, and cultural studies.

Sponsored by: The Program on Human Rights and the Global Economy (PHRGE), Northeastern University School of Law. The PHRGE is a forum for innovative legal work on the implications of economic, social, and cultural rights and the impact of globalization on all human rights.
