It's too bad that this great book is subtitled "Violence and the Violent in Latin America," as violence is just one of the many interrelated strands Rosenberg covers, including the legacy of colonialism, American imperialism, racism, corruption, etc. The sad part is that though this book is two decades old, the same issues are making a comeback throughout the Americas. Recommended if you like the essays of the great Alma Guillermoprieto. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
An honest judge in Medellin, a Maoist guerilla of Peru's Shining Path, the fair-haired Angel of Death in Argentina's Dirty War, the pool-party rich of El Salvador, the disabused revolutionaries of Nicaragua, and the ordinary Chileans who became silent partners in Pinochet's dictatorship--these people live in Latin America, but their stories illuminate the human face of violence all over the world. Tina Rosenberg spent five years trying to understand their world and learning to live with these "children of Cain." Their stories are disturbing precisely because these people are not monsters; the faces in Children of Cain are not those of strangers. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
