Seeking Human Rights Justice in Latin America
This book studies how victims of human rights violations in Latin America, their families, and their advocates work to overcome entrenched impunity and seek legal justice. 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 jumpstart 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.
Counternetwork
Through an analysis of transnational criminal networks originating in South America, this report presents operational characteristics of these networks, strategic alliances they have established, and the multiple threats that they pose to U.S. interests and to the stability of the countries where they operate. It also identifies U.S. government policies and programs to counter these networks and examines the military’s role in that context.
Truth Commissions
Onur Bakiner evaluates the success of truth commissions in promoting political, judicial, and social change. He argues that even when commissions produce modest change as a result of political constraints, they open new avenues for human rights activism and transform public discourses on memory, truth, justice, and reconciliation.
Imagining Justice for Syria
This book situates the war in Syria within the actual and imagined system of international criminal justice. It explores the legal impediments and diplomatic challenges that have led to the fatal trinity affecting Syria: the massive commission of international crimes that are subject to detailed investigations and documentation but whose perpetrators have enjoyed virtually complete impunity. Given this tragic state of affairs, the book tracks a number of accountability solutions being explored within multilateral initiatives and by civil society actors, including innovations of institutional design; the renewed utility of a range of domestic jurisdictional principles (including the revival o...

La reforma del Código penal a debate
Los Cuadernos penales José María Lidón tienen un doble objetivo. Pretenden mantener viva la memoria del profesor y magistrado José María Lidón, asesinado por ETA, ya que relegarlo al olvido seria tanto como permitir que la insoportable injusticia de su muerte viniera a menos y en cierta forma, hacerse cómplice de ella. Asimismo pretenden que su memoria sea un punto de encuentro para quienes deseen cualquier profesión relacionada con el Derecho penal compartan, como compartimos con él, el anhelo por un Derecho que contribuya a crear cada vez mas amplios espacios de libertad e igualdad y a que este modo su memoria será doblemente enriquecedora.
Desafíos del derecho procesal del siglo XXI
Este libro muestra un extraordinario y desafiante despliegue de temas esenciales del Derecho procesal del siglo XXI: Si el desafío, por excelencia, del siglo XX –para los procesalistas– fue la construcción de procesos plenamente garantistas –y acordes a los dictados de la CE de 1978– en el Estado Social y Democrático de Derecho que entonces estrenábamos; el desafío del siglo XXI –también para los procesalistas– lo es –sin lugar a dudas– la digitalización de la Justicia, la inserción de técnicas de IA en su marco de actuación y la categorización de conceptos procesales (tales como la prueba prohibida) que, lamentablemente, carece todavía de una formulación dogmát...
La Ley concursal y la mediación concursal. Un estudio conjunto realizado por especialistas
La figura del Administrador Concursal se ha convertido, en mi opinión, en un verdadero ejercicio profesional que requiere de una formación integral tanto en materia jurídica como económica-empresarial y que conlleva importantes dosis de responsabilidad. El Administrador Concursal debe estar preparado para enfrentarse a las situaciones de insolvencia, ofreciendo respuestas eficaces y rápidas, que permitan dar seguridad jurídica al Juzgado, al concursado y a todos los agentes que se ven afectados por el mismo. Y gracias al Real Decreto 980/2013, de 13 de diciembre, nace la figura del Mediador Concursal. La transformación socio-jurídica que en los últimos años está sufriendo España,...
