Human Rights, Inc.: The World Novel, Narrative Form, and International Law
Joseph R. Slaughter
A study of the historical, ideological, and formal interdependencies of the novel and human rights, this book demonstrates that the twentieth-century rise of "world literature" and international human rights law are related phenomena. It argues that international law shares with the modern novel a particular conception of the human individual.
