Based on local empirical evidence and including valuable voices from the Latin American Global South, this edited collection contradicts dominant assumptions in the much-cited international transitional justice literature.Transitional justiceLatin AmericaViolence (Law)Latin AmericaCrimes against humanityLatin AmericaPolitical violenceLatin AmericaElectronic books.Transitional justiceViolence (Law)Crimes against humanityPolitical violence340/.115098Schneider Nina1980-Esparza MarciaMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461115003321Legacies of state violence and transitional justice in Latin America2019005UNINA
