Critics have decried human rights approaches' a failure to attend to structural factors, but this book seeks to go beyond a 'stance of criticism'. It takes up the positive project of reimagining how human rights could attend to the worlds that produce systematic violations like torture so as to prevent it.

In the last years of the twentieth century, political leaders the world over began to apologize for wrongs in their nations' pasts. This book argues that these apologies mark a new stage in our recognition of the importance of collective responsibility.
