The Right to an Adequate Standard of Living: Justice, Autonomy, and the Basic Needs
Social Philosophy and Policy 9 (1):231 (1992)
Abstract
Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights reads as follows: “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services.” I shall refer to the right postulated here as “the right to an adequate standard of living” or “The Right.”Author's Profile
