Sommario/riassunto

In 2001, following a generation of armed conflict and authoritarian rule, the Peruvian state created a Truth and Reconciliation Committee (TRC). Pascha Bueno-Hansen places the TRC, feminist and human rights movements, and related non-governmental organisations within an international and historical context to expose the difficulties in addressing gender-based violence.
