The Condor Trials
Stories of transnational terror and justice illuminate the past and present of South America’s struggles for human rights. Through the voices of survivors, human rights activists, judicial actors, and experts, The Condor Trials unravels the secrets of transnational repression masterminded by South American dictators between 1969 and 1981. Under Operation Condor, the regimes of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay closely monitored hundreds of exiles and kidnapped, tortured, murdered, or forcibly returned them to their countries of origin. This cross-border network designed to silence opposition in exile transformed South America into a borderless zone of terror and impunity. Francesca Lessa shows how, gradually, transnational networks of activists materialized and effectively transcended national borders to achieve justice for the victims of these horrors. Based on extensive fieldwork, archival research, trial ethnography, and over 100 interviews, The Condor Trials explores South America’s past and present and sheds light on ongoing struggles for justice as its societies come to terms with the unparalleled atrocities of their not-so-distant pasts.

Vendedores de cuchillos
El lavado de activos es una condición necesaria para el funcionamiento de cualquier actividad económica ilegalizada y los "vendedores de cuchillos" son un componente clave de este negocio criminal. Al menos durante la modernidad occidental, que es la era de la que podemos hablar aquí con cierta propiedad, la humanidad ha fracasado en la mitigación de los negocios criminales. Esto se observa con claridad en las demandas de seguridad de la población, que reclama sistemáticamente, de forma directa y llana, medidas de mano dura hacia los delitos que cometen los débiles de poder. Este libro pretende demostrar que el mercado ilícito del lavado de activos es uno de los desafíos pendientes ...
Los protectores del capital
¿Qué lugar tiene Uruguay en el menú internacional del tráfico de drogas ilegales? ¿Qué servicios ofrece el país y qué actores locales protegen al crimen organizado? Esta es una investigación exhaustiva y rigurosa sobre las operaciones delictivas llevadas adelante en Uruguay por parte de organizaciones criminales mexicanas dedicadas al tráfico de drogas ilegales. Aquí están recogidas todas las partes de un gran rompecabezas. Recorre la arquitectura normativa financiera que hizo de Uruguay, a partir de 1970, una jurisdicción atractiva, así como el abanico de servicios financieros y actores locales que han dado cobijo a la circulación y legitimación del dinero sucio. Establece l...
