... all those involved in the first edition are to be congratulated for what will undoubtedly in due course come to be seen as a seminal text in the 'operationalisation' phase of the CRPD's life.

Alex Ruck Keene, International Journal of Mental Health and Capacity Law

This book is undoubtedly essential to any human rights academic research, and a highly relevant resource of changing practices according to the CRPD application in the courts. The extensive list of court decisions, the significant number of countries/jurisdictions analyzed, and the profound reflection on the domestic legal status of the CRPD and the different judicial approaches of the CRPD shows the impact of human rights and international law engagement. This work is a substantive tool towards changing the policies and the social consciousness of human rights, namely the protection of the right of persons with disabilities.

The Journal of Adult Protection

a vital and thought-provoking addition to the literature on comparative international law and disability rights. ... This groundbreaking text is the first sustained comparative international law analysis of the CRPD greatly contributing to the theory and practice of interdisciplinary disability studies.

Anna Drabarz, Białostockie Studia Prawnicze

Introduced in 2008, the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities has existed for nearly a decade. This comprehensive study examines how courts in thirteen different jurisdictions make use of the Convention. The first sustained comparative international law analysis of the CRPD, Waddington and Lawsons ground breaking text illuminates the intersection between human rights law, disability law and international law through an examination of the role of courts. The first part of the book contains chapters specific to each jurisdiction. The second part consists of comparative chapters which draw on the rich analysis of the jurisdiction-specific chapters. These chapters reflect on emerging patterns of judicial usage and interpretation of the CRPD and on the wider implications for human rights theory and the nascent field of international comparative human rights law. This volume is a vital and thought-provoking addition to the literature on comparative international law and disability rights.
