Dr. S.R. Myneni’s Law & Poverty examines law’s relationship with poverty and social disadvantage — a subject at the heart of the law-and-social-transformation and access-to-justice papers. It explores the constitutional promise of social and economic justice, the Directive Principles as a charter against poverty, the role of public interest litigation and legal aid in reaching the marginalised, and the legislative and welfare framework addressing the poor — land reform, labour and social-security law, and rights-based statutes on food, work and education.
The book engages the critical questions the paper turns on: whether formal legal equality reaches substantive equality, and how the courts have used their powers to advance distributive justice. The 2023 edition grounds the discussion in Indian jurisprudence. A thoughtful text for social-justice electives and clinical courses.
