“…However, Raz (as cited in Zanghellini, 2017, p.26) argues that human rights cannot be associated to rights that people have in virtue of their humanity alone. According to ITR, ‘A party holds a right correlative to a duty only if that party stands to undergo a development that is typically detrimental if the duty is breached’ (Kurki, 2018). According to Raz (2010, as cited in Zanghellini, 2017, p.26), rights are grounds for duties, duties being peremptory reasons for action.…”

All around the world the COVID-19 pandemic is having an enormous impact on people’s lives. Contrary to many other countries, Sweden has opted against lockdown. The Swedish Government has put trust in its people and has advised them to be responsible and follow the recommendations and guidelines of the Public Health Agency of Sweden. Using the Interest Theory of Rights, this article discusses the impact of the Swedish response to COVID-19 on three different Swedish communities, and considers the implications of such a strategy on social development. Data was collected from different national and international media sources as well as from Swedish authorities’ websites. A qualitative content analysis was used to analyse the data with the help of ATLAS-ti.8.4. The findings section discusses how three community groups in Sweden—the elderly, immigrants from marginalised areas and prisoners—are having their rights altered during this pandemic period. It also outlines different social development approaches being used in Sweden for tackling the challenges relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. This article concludes that a strong democratic state is vital in managing a pandemic such as COVID-19. It also argues that the strength of a state largely depends on its citizens’ willpower to take ownership of responsibilities—both individually and collectively.

“…Interest theorists disagree. Interest theorists maintain that the function of a right is to further the right-holder's interests [16] . An owner has a right, according to the interest theorist, not because owners have choices, but because the ownership makes owners better off.…”

In discussions concerning the abysmal level of poverty in Africa which has been a hot topic for decades, the topic of economic, social and cultural (socio-economic) rights is always up for controversy. There are constant reports on the poor state of socio-economic development on the continent. African countries also share the constant criticism for the poor state of socio-economic rights. This paper analyzes the journey of good governance and institutions as a fundamental determinant of the sustainable realization of social and economic right. It explains the position of fundamental rights and directive principles in the Constitutions of some African States. Furthermore, it examines the judicial approach of dealing with the relationship between fundamental rights and directive principles. The findings of this paper go beyond the executive domain and investigate the contributions of judicial institution in realization of socio-economic rights and development in Africa. In this light, it looks into the enforceability of socio-economic rights and recommends establishment of independent institutions in each African state for the enforcement of socio-economic rights.
