Abstract
Daniel Laqua's recent monograph Activism across Borders Since 1870: Causes, Campaigns and Conflicts in and beyond Europe raises a number of pertinent issues for historians of human rights to reflect upon. This article takes the four analytical lenses highlighted by Laqua for assessing transnational activism and applies them to cases of human rights activism in the Cold War and post-Cold War era. In doing so, this article argues that Laqua's framework offers much scope for historians to approach the history of human rights activism with a more critical edge. It also highlights the challenge of retaining an analytical focus on an issue as emotive and complex as human rights, and how Laqua's lenses may offer a practical methodology to do this.
Daniel Laqua 最近出版的专著《1870 年以来的跨界激进主义》（Activism across Borders Since 1870：欧洲内外的起因、运动和冲突》一书提出了许多相关问题，供人权史学家思考。本文采用拉夸强调的四种分析视角来评估跨国激进主义，并将其应用于冷战和后冷战时代的人权激进主义案例。在此过程中，本文认为拉夸的框架为历史学家以更具批判性的视角研究人权活动史提供了很大的空间。文章还强调了对像人权这样情绪化和复杂的问题保持分析性关注所面临的挑战，以及拉夸的视角如何为此提供实用的方法论。
