MARTINON, Ruth e WENCES, Isabel. Inter-American Court of Human Rights and Poverty. New Incursions in the Light of the Case Hacienda Brasil Verde. Anu. Mex. Der. Inter [online]. 2020, vol.20, pp.169-201. Epub 19-Mar-2021. ISSN 1870-4654. https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24487872e.2020.20.14474.
Since the nineties the international arena has born witness to a number of attempts to join the forces against poverty to the defense of human rights. Such a task has been founded so far on programmatic or soft law instruments. The Inter-American Court gave a twist to this trend with its ruling in the Case Workers of the Hacienda Brasil Verde vs. Brazil, because it established the juridification of the link between poverty and human rights. The main objective of this research is to unveil the importance of this step in the context of the efforts to eradicate poverty. With this objective in mind, we analyze how the Inter-American Court accomplishes this construction that culminates by determining state responsibility for violation of human rights in relation to the principle of equality and non-discrimination by economic position, together with the consequences of this reasoning, especially for the identification of new judicial standards in the struggle against poverty.
