She examines which factors influence a country’s approach in confronting its past and addressing impunity. The emphasis is placed on the way countries may overcome amnesty laws with the support of international law in order to hold perpetrators of grave human rights violations to account. The book’s main focus is on the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and the impact of its jurisprudence on legal proceedings and political decisions within the national transitional justice processes in the three countries.International studies in human rights ;Volume 113.Human rightsLatin AmericaAmnestyLatin AmericaInternational and municipal lawLatin AmericaInternational law and human rightsLatin AmericaElectronic books.Human rightsAmnestyInternational and municipal lawInternational law and human rights341.48098Micus Annelen1042991MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910493190303321The inter-American human rights system as a safeguard for justice in national transitions2467656UNINA
