Abstract
This article explores new conversations about the possibilities and limits of human rights documentation as a mode of truth-seeking. Drawing on the author’s more than two decades of experience working with human rights NGOs on issues related to state-sponsored violence and humanitarian assistance across Southeast Asia, especially Myanmar, this article explores multiple ways in which human rights “facts” are produced rather than found.
