Well, since the string literal contains no non-ascii characters it is
perfectly safe to just use a (python2.x) string literal and it will be
automatically coerced to unicode if it is used in a unicode context.

OTOH it is possible to use

from __future__ import unicode_literals

to turn all string literals to unicode literals in python 2.x.
