Writing Wrongs: The Cultural Construction of Human Rights in India 1st edition
Pramod K. Nayar
This book examines the ‘cultural apparatus’ of Human Rights in India today. It unravels discourses of victimhood, oppression, suffering and witnessing through a study of autobiographies, memoirs, reportage and media coverage, and documentaries, moving across multiple media and genres for their representations of Dalits, riot victims, prisoners, abused and abandoned women, and children.
