ABSTRACT
Following the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, contractions in the global economy were often utilised as a justification for deep cuts in State spending, including welfare state programmes. This article will problematise the ‘necessity’ of austerity measures and how this conflicts with the intentions of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), which requires State intervention to ensure the right to a minimum standard of living (Article 28 CRPD) for such persons. By comparing the arguably voluntary and ideologically driven austerity programme undertaken in the United Kingdom with the externally imposed ‘Bailout Package' in Ireland, it will address whether the Convention may, in limited circumstances, allow for programmes such as these to be deemed compatible with the CRPD among developed States.

紧缩的“必要性”及其与《联合国残疾人权利公约》的关系:以爱尔兰和英国为例

摘要
在2008年全球金融危机之后,全球经济的收缩通常被用作大幅削减国家支出(包括福利国家计划)的理由。本文将对紧缩措施的“必要性”提出质疑,以及这是否与《残疾人权利公约》的意图相抵触,《残疾人权利公约》要求国家干预以确保获得最低生活水准的权利(《残疾人权利公约》第28条) )。通过将在英国进行的可以说是自愿的,由意识形态驱动的紧缩计划与在爱尔兰实施的外部“一揽子救助方案”进行比较,它将探讨《公约》是否可以在有限的情况下允许诸如此类的方案被视为与《联合国宪章》相兼容。发达国家的《残疾人权利公约》。
