Mark Goodale’s proposition to reinvent human rights begins with a deep unpacking of human rights institutionalism and political theory in order to give priority to the “practice of human rights.” Rather than a priori claims to universality, he calls for a working theory of human rights defined by “translocality,” a conceptual and ethical grounding that invites people to form alliances beyond established boundaries of community, nation, race, or religious identity.
