This sophisticated book argues that human rights literature both
helps the persecuted to cope with their trauma and serves as the
foundation for a cosmopolitan ethos of universal civility-a culture
without borders. Michael Galchinsky maintains that, no matter how
many treaties there are, a rights-respecting world will not truly
exist until people everywhere can imagine it. The Modes of Human
Rights Literature describes four major forms of human rights
literature: protest, testimony, lament, and laughter to reveal how
such works give common symbolic forms to widely held sociopolitical
emotions.
