HUMAN
RIGHTS
edited by thomas cushman
This series features important new works by leading figures in the
interdisciplinary field of human rights. Books in the series present
provocative and powerful statements, theories, or views on contem-
porary issues in human rights. The aim of the series is to provide
short, accessible works that will present new and original thinking
in crystalline form and in a language accessible to a wide range of
scholars, policymakers, students, and general readers. The series
will include works by anthropologists, sociologists, philosophers,
political scientists, and those working in the more traditional fields
of human rights, including practitioners.
Thomas Cushman is Professor of Sociology at Wellesley College.
He previously edited a series for The Pennsylvania State University
Press titled Post-Communist Cultural Studies, in which a dozen vol-
umes appeared. He is the founding editor of two journals,
Human
Rights Review
and the
Journal of Human Rights,
and he now serves
as Editor-at-Large for the latter. He is a Fellow of the Yale Center for
Cultural Sociology.
