That sounds really cool, actually. I don’t read the language, but I appreciate the reference all the same. The description vaguely reminds me of Steven Pinker’s The Better Angels of Our Nature, which, along with its author, has come under some criticism, and is concerned with the reduction of violence rather than the arc of human rights.

All of this probably speaks more to my own limited study in these areas, which I’m happy to have had broadened by you. Do you have any other suggestions for readings in the area of human rights, or generally?
