Unequal Britain : Human Rights as a Route to Social Justice

Britain is a divided society and inequality is growing every day. This book is a shocking analysis of a country tearing itself apart and offers a radical blueprint for change. Stuart Weir argues that New Labor's retreat from the welfare state makes a new form of protection for social and economic well-being vital and proposes a Bill of Rights guaranteeing economic, social and political rights for everyone. Stuart Weir is an author, broadcaster, academic and former editor of the New Statesman.

Stuart Weir is currently Visiting Professor at the Department of Government, University of Essex
