Abstract

Connections between the Law, rights and development are complex and may call for different interpretations in a globalisation context. People?s rights, or Human rights, which are subjective rights must be distinguished from objective rights, even if they are clearly interdependent and their compatibility is debated. An integral part of economic development is the earning of rights and the effectiveness of theses rights. There are, however, different understandings as to what constitutes rights and thus an intense debate over their universality. The present paper presents, in a general way, the connections between development, the rights of agents and the Law in the current context of globalisation. It also attempts to apply this analytical matrix to the Law and the rights for food.
