Their struggles show that legal justice is a multifaceted process, the overarching purpose of which is to restore human dignity and prevent further violence. Uncovering, revealing, and proving the truth are essential elements of legal justice, and are also powerful tools to activate the process. When faced with stubborn impunity at home, victims, families, and advocates can carry on their work for legal justice by bringing cases in courts in other countries or in the inter-American human rights system. These extra-territorial courts can jump-start the process of legal justice at home. Seeking Human Rights Justice in Latin America examines the political and legal struggle through the lens of the human story at the heart of these cases. 606 $aInternational human rights courts$zLatin America 615 0$aInternational human rights courts 676 $a341.4/8 700 $aDavis$b Jeffrey$f1967-$01651882 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819138903321 996 $aSeeking human rights justice in Latin America$94002139 997 $aUNINA
