A major goal of creating this new human right was to incentivize governments to prioritize and pursue policies to improve access to affordable, potable water to the more than 750 million people worldwide who lacked access, as well as to provide the more than 2.5 billion people with inadequate sanitation. The book’s chapters use a variety of methodological approaches including qualitative case studies and quantitative studies that draw on data from around the world. The chapters reveal how the global human right to water and sanitation was created, how it has been used in rights struggles around the world, and the extent to which it has improved access to water and sanitation for the world’s most marginalized people.Water and Sanitation as Human RightsHumanitiesbicsscSocial interactionbicsscCape Town Day Zerowater rightswater scarcitywater-justicewater-governanceinequalitySouth Africaright to watercourtsvulnerable groupsUN resolutionswatersanitationhuman rightshuman right to water and sanitationHRtWSnatural language processingmachine learningtext analysisconstitutional reformlegal opportunity structurewater legal frameworksocioeconomic rightsBrazilPeruColombiasocial movementspolitical costadvocacyactivismsocial movementsocio-economic rightsUnited Statespolitical opportunitycoalition-buildingcollective actionhuman rights from belowhuman rights to water and sanitationwater accessconstitutionalisationnorm diffusionopportunity structuresimpact and efficacy of human rightshuman right to waterdrinking waterirrigationmarginalised groupsindigenous communitiessocial and economic rightshuman rights critiquesright to liferight to environmentglobal rightsevolution of rightsconstruction of rightsLatin AmericaSouth AsiaEuropeAfricaUSAHumanitiesSocial interactionWilson Bruce Medt1319280Brinks DanieledtSingh ArkajaedtWilson Bruce MothBrinks DanielothSingh ArkajaothBOOK9910619462003321UNINA
