Глобализација и концепт социјалних права
Globalization and the Concept of Social Rights

Summary/Abstract: In this paper, the authors attempt to observe the problem of the application and functioning of social rights in the conditions of globalization and stiff international competition. In the first section of the paper, the influence of globalization on the concept of the social state is analyzed, and it is pointed out that it is necessary to reform the social state by making it capable to give answer to new challenges, especially the ones which came about due to changes in the global context and the structure of society. In the second section of the paper, the object of research is the enforcement of social rights in the conditions of globalization and the increasing flexibilization and deregulation of labour law. Specifically, the question asked is how can labour law and society in general efficiently respond to the ubiquitous trend of decreasing the level of social security? This attack on social rights and the inclination to turn labour relations back to free, market- regulated relations is an attack on the distinctness and independence of labour relations in general. Also, in this section of the paper the authors will also shortly analyze the current situation regarding the enforcement and protection of social rights in the Republic of Serbia.
