| Description: |
Here, the author explaines the emergence, success and limitation of human rights reform during the period surrounding Argentina's military dictatorship of 1976-83. |
| Synopsis: |
Under Argentina's military dictatorship of 1976-83, tens of thousands of Argentine citizens disappeared - having been abducted, tortured, and finally murdered by their own government. Almost ten thousand more people were held as political prisoners under extremely inhumane conditions, and thousands of others were kidnapped and tortured, but ultimately released. This book is the most comprehensive treatment of the emergence, successes, and failures of the only force that resisted the unspeakable atrocities of state terror: the Argentine human rights movement, composed of grieving mothers and grandmothers, civil libertarians, and religious figures. |
