Abstract :

This article foregrounds afresh the legal and policyframeworks required in the international system at both economicand human rights fields to reach effective enjoyment of theright to development. The analyses of the author relate to fourindividual studies: 1- The record of the right to development; 2-The legitimacy of the right to development; 3- Interdependenceof the right and the process of development; 4- Monitoring andimplementation. The result is an effort to dislodge internationallaw from its exclusive focus on the states, internationalinstitutions, and particular logics of economic development.The author argues that the states must recognize the right todevelopment as a human right in order to realize developmentas an obligation in the line of national action and internationalpartnership. She concludes that the development of the conceptof right to development needs time to become accomplished,though it is currently used as a bargain in the hands of states.
