Reviews for Constructing the Enemy: Empathy/Antipathy in U.S. Literature and Law
"Constructing the Enemy is a fascinating book-nuanced and engaging-that weaves together legal theory, the realities of legal practice, historical vignettes, and literary analysis. Srikanth artfully straddles disciplines and adds important new insights. Her refined, subtly developed topic is quite timely, and her ideas about empathy/antipathy are both challenging and accessible." -Daniel Kanstroom, Boston College
