Master Thesis takes into consideration recent growing importance of socio-economic rights in human rights law and analysis under which circumstances person, fleeing deprivation of the right to work, right to education or other severe socio-economic rights deprivation in a country of origin, may be granted refugee status under 1951 Refugee Convention. Thesis presents recent positive changes of socio-economic rights status in human rights law, which shows that the hierarchy of different rights is meaningless and all human rights must be treated in an equal manner. Moreover, analysed integrated human rights approach taken by the European Court of Human Rights jurisprudence, reflects the contemporary understanding that all human rights are indivisible, interrelated and interdependent. Finally, it is revealed how developed understanding of socio-economic rights in international human rights law has influenced refugee law, in particular, under which circumstances claims based on socio-economic rights deprivation could be successful refugee claims. The examination revealed that the 1951 Refugee Convention interpreted in the human rights based approach is able to encompass severe socio-economic rights deprivation claims based on Conventional reason, however analysed case-law is different and inconsistent. |
