A history of the successes of the human rights movement and a case for why human rights workEvidence for Hope makes the case that yes, human rights work.
Critics may counter that the movement is in serious jeopardy or even a questionable byproduct of Western imperialism.

But human rights expert Kathryn Sikkink draws on decades of research and fieldwork to provide a rigorous rebuttal to doubts about human rights laws and institutions.

Exploring the strategies that have led to real humanitarian gains since the middle of the twentieth century, Evidence for Hope looks at how essential advances can be sustained for decades to come.
