    摘要、提要註: In an increasingly globalized economy, Sims argues that Ida B. Wells's fight against lynchingis a viable option to address systemic forms of oppression. More than a century since Wells launchedher anti-lynching campaign, an examination of her work questions America's use of lynching as a tool to regulate behavior and the manner in which public opinion is shaped and lived out in the privatesector. Ethical Complications of Lynching highlights the residual effects of lynching as a twenty-first century moral impediment in the fight to actualize ethical possibilities.
