dc.description.abstractThe Constitution of South Africa (the Constitution) is characterised by its extensive commitment to socio-economic rights. The courts are mandated to translate these rights into enforceable legal claims, primarily by deciding on the constitutionality of any law or conduct. This includes deciding whether a given law, policy or conduct is consistent with socio-economic rights.en_US
