Details

This comprehensive volume provides a fresh approach to Article 13 and its Directives, adopting a contextual framework. Part I deals with the evolution of Article 13, demographic and social change and the inter-relationship between European Equality Law and Human Rights.

Part II contains expert essays on each of the Article 13 anti-discrimination grounds: sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age and sexual orientation with common themes weaving throughout. This book will be of interest to everyone concerned with combating discrimination in the European Union and beyond.
