Maritza Urrutia was abducted from a middle-class neighborhood while taking her son to school in 1992. To Save Her Life tells the story of her ordeal which included being interrogated in secret by army intelligence officers about her activities as part of a political opposition group. Chained to a bed, blindfolded, and deprived of sleep, Maritza was ultimately spared because her family was able to contact influential intermediaries, including author Dan Saxon, who was in Guatemala working for the Catholic Church's Human Rights Office. Here Saxon brings to life the web of players who achieved her release: the Church, the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Congress, numerous NGOs, guerrilla groups, politicians, students, and the media. Reaching back to 1954, when Maritza's grandparents were activists, the book is a study of the complex and often cruel politics of human rights, and its themes reverberate from Guatemala to Guantánamo to Iraq. 606 $aDisappeared persons$zGuatemala 606 $aPolitical persecution$zGuatemala 606 $aHuman rights$zGuatemala 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zGuatemala 607 $aGuatemala$xForeign relations$zUnited States 610 $a20th century guatemalan history. 610 $a20th century latin american history. 610 $aabduction. 610 $aactivism. 610 $aamerican government. 610 $aarmy intelligence. 610 $acaptivity. 610 $acatholic church. 610 $adan saxon. 610 $ademocracy. 610 $adisappearance. 610 $agovernment and governing. 610 $aguatemala. 610 $aguerrilla groups. 610 $ahuman rights activism. 610 $ahuman rights office. 610 $ahuman rights. 610 $ahumanity. 610 $ainterrogation. 610 $alatin american history. 610 $alove story. 610 $angos. 610 $apolitical opposition group. 610 $apolitical. 610 $apolitics. 610 $asocial justice. 610 $astruggle. 610 $atorture. 610 $aus congress. 610 $aus intervention. 610 $aus state department. 610 $aviolence. 615 0$aDisappeared persons 615 0$aPolitical persecution 615 0$aHuman rights 676 $a972.8105/3 700 $aSaxon$b Dan$f1958-$01490134 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778391603321 996 $aTo save her life$93827868 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02289oas 2200877 a 450 001 9910147023503321 005 20250921213016.0 011 $a1626-3219 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2014638-3 035 $a(DE-599)2014638-3 035 $a(OCoLC)42384909 035 $a(CONSER) 2014242005 035 $a(CKB)954926247585 035 $a(EXLCZ)99954926247585 100 $a19990917a19979999 sy 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAerospace science and technology 210 $a[Paris] $c[Gauthier-Villars] 210 3 $aParis$dElsevier 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 08$a1270-9638 517 1 $aAST 606 $aAeronautics$vPeriodicals 606 $aAstronautics$vPeriodicals 606 $aAeronautics$vPeriodicals 606 $aAstronautics$vPeriodicals 606 $aAe?ronautique$xPe?riodiques 606 $aAstronautique$xPe?riodiques 606 $aAstronautique$vPe?riodiques 606 $aAeronautics$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00798293 606 $aAstronautics$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00819505 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2lcgft 615 0$aAeronautics 615 0$aAstronautics 615 0$aAeronautics 615 0$aAstronautics 615 6$aAe?ronautique$xPe?riodiques. 615 6$aAstronautique$xPe?riodiques. 615 6$aAstronautique 615 7$aAeronautics. 615 7$aAstronautics. 676 $aAeronautics 712 02$aFrance.$bOffice national d'e?tudes et de recherches ae?rospatiales, 712 02$aDeutsche Gesellschaft fu?r Luft- und Raumfahrt, 801 0$bTJC 801 1$bTJC 801 2$bEYM 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bSYB 801 2$bU9S 801 2$bCUD 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bMYG 801 2$bOCLCA 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCA 801 2$bVT2 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bUAB 801 2$bIUL 801 2$bUBY 801 2$bU3W 801 2$bOCLCL 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910147023503321 996 $aAerospace science and technology$9801733 997 $aUNINA
