Summary "This commentary, drafted by scholars of the Academic Network on the European Social Charter and Social Rights, is aimed both at researchers studying socio-economic rights in Europe, and at legal practitioners; civil society organisations, trade unions and ministerial staff engaging with the procedures of the European Committee of Social Rights. The text is compiled by a large body of expert contributors, working together with an Editorial Board, under the supervision of a Scientific Committee. The commentary will offer approximately 106 Chapters, organized in eight volumes, some of which are focused on the substantive state obligations and the jurisprudence of the European Committee of Social Rights, others on the procedures that state representatives, international bodies and applicants must follow to engage with the system of the European Social Charter. The volumes in this monumental and authoritative collection will be published from 2022 onwards"-- Provided by the publisher
