Özet: International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR) requires states party to adopt all mechanisms, within the limits of their available resources, particularly legislative and institutional measures, for the progressive and full realization of Socio-economic Rights (SER) at national level. To this end, states party to the Covenant have taken various measures to give effective domestic legal protection to SER. However, SER customarily lack full protection and proper enforcement mechanisms at national legal systems. Ethiopia and Turkey, being parties to the CESCR, have protected SER in their respective domestic laws. Accordingly, using the minimum international standards set by human rights instruments as a unit of comparison, this article strives to comparatively analyze the Ethiopian and Turkish systems for the protection of SER at their national jurisdictions.
