This book would not be possible without the support and encouragement we received from many individuals and institutions. The financial support of the National Science Foundation (grant number 1061457), the Human Rights Institute at the University of Connecticut, and The New School facilitated the research and development of the book. Josh De Wind and Lauren Shields helped develop our research into a data set and an initiative housed at the Social Science Research Council. The skillful editorial reviews by Mary Lynn Hanley and Rachael Wyant were enormously helpful in finalizing the manuscript. Finally, we are grateful to Angela Chnapko, our Oxford University Press editor, for her patience and guidance throughout the process of bringing this book to fruition.
