Anti-discriminatory legal mechanisms. Contributions for the Anti-discriminatory Law configuration.
Abstract
For some years, the existence of a specific Law called Anti-discriminatory Law took force. However, there is not a systematic treatment of such discipline, so is needed a comprehensive analysis of their central postulates and mechanisms to fight discrimination. The states sometimes inspired by international regulation on the subject have used various tools to combat discrimination with greateror lesser success although sometimes these measures are not visualized as forms of protection. However, the non-discrimination mechanisms often share common traits that make plausible to systematize them under valid categories for different legal systems. Only by analyzing these mechanisms through categories will it be possible to form a complete idea about the state of Non-discrimination Law in a given legal system and therefore contribute to its development Summary: 1.
