Prof. Rupert Read teaches Philosophy at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, UK, working alongside some of the world’s top climate scientists. His academic work includes Ecological and Political Philosophy (including critiques of Rawlsian liberalism and of ’natural capital', and work on the Precautionary Principle). He is also a renowned Wittgensteinian scholar. He has dedicated much of his life to working at a local, national and international level in the fight against climate collapse and was recently described as "one of the world's leading climate activists”.Several of his talks on YouTube have hundreds of thousands of views, including ’This Civilisation is Finished’, given at Cambridge University in October 2018. Read more about this authorRead less about this author

Human rights and economics are not often spoken about in the same breath. Yet increasingly, human rights actors are calling for a shift towards a rights-based or human-rights economy.

One that puts the economy truly at the service of communities contending with extreme social and economic inequality, climate catastrophe and corporate abuses. The economies we live in structure our daily experiences and represent systems which can profoundly affect our ability to enjoy our rights to decent work, adequate healthcare, political participation, freedom from violence and more.

This book systematizes academic and practitioners’ analyses and experiences, drawing from different epistemologies, literatures and case studies, to flesh out what a rights-based economy would look like, and the tools and actions – economic, legal, environmental and social – needed to get there. .
