Drawing on confidential Argentinian documents and memoranda, Behind the Disappearances documents a seven-year diplomatic war by one of the twentieth century's most brutal regimes. It relates how, starting in 1976, Argentina's military government tried to cripple the UN's human rights machinery in an effort to prevent international condemnation of its policy of disappearances. Initially this attempt succeeded, but in 1980—with encouragement from the Carter administration—UN officials regained the initiative and created a special working group on disappearances that rejuvenated the UN's efforts. This progress was abruptly halted in 1981 when the Reagan administration sided with the Argentinian regime. The result, claims the author, not only undercut the UN's actions against disappearances but also weakened its chances of playing a positive role in aiding Latin America's transition from dictatorship to democracy.

"Under Argentina's military dictatorship of 1976-83, tens of thousands of Argentine citizens disappeared - having been abducted, tortured, and finally murdered by their own government." "This book is the most comprehensive treatment of the emergence, successes, and failures of the Argentine human rights movement - the only force that resisted the unspeakable atrocities of state terror. At the risk of their lives, grieving mothers and grandmothers, civil libertarians, and religious figures used a unique combination of symbolic protest, information gathering, and international pressure to demand accountability from the state and to defend the victims of repression." "The movement played a key role in Argentina's 1983 transition to democracy. Under democracy, the movement continued to work for accountability for past human rights violations through a presidential investigatory commission, criminal trials of former military rulers, and the tracing of "missing" children who had been illegally adopted. The author also analyzes the role of the human rights movement in a range of Alfonsin-era legal and social reforms." "Why was a group of relatively powerless ordinary citizens able to successfully resist and challenge a brutal, authoritarian state? How could a social movement catalyze and shape democratization? Moving beyond the case study, the book extends the theoretical "new social movement" perspective to a theory of symbolic politics in which changes in agenda and challenges to legitimacy transformed both state and society. This approach explains why the very strategies that enabled the Argentine human rights movement to survive dictatorship and to catalyze sweeping reforms have limited the movement's ability to truly institutionalize human rights in today's Argentina."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The &“disappearance&” and torture of many people during the worst days of the authoritarian regimes that ruled many Latin American countries in the 1970s have been well documented and widely condemned as abuses of human rights. Less well known is what has become of the movements for human rights once democratic governments were restored in these countries. In this book, Michelle Bonner reveals how the defense of human rights continues today, taking Argentina as her primary example (with comparison to Chile in the final chapter). Bonner shows that the role of women&—viewed as protectors of the family&—is key to understanding how human rights movements have evolved. Moreover, the continuity of the &“historical frames&” used to legitimate their activity is an essential element in the success of their efforts, even while the claimed abuse has changed from the political repression undertaken by the dictators&’ minions to the economic hardships created by market inequities resulting from neoliberal policies. Based on extensive field research and providing a long historical view extending from colonial times to the present, this study compares the activities of the ten most prominent human rights organizations in Argentina and assesses the responses of both state and society.

The new democracies of the Southern Cone have publicly professed to reject and condemn the uses of the state power in various forms against citizens under military rule, thus dissociating themselves from their predecessors. And yet the experiences of military rule have become a grim legacy, raising major issues and dilemmas to the forefront of the public agenda. The Legacy of Human Rights Violations in the Southern Cone: Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay analyses in a systematic and comparative way the struggles and debates, the institutional paths and crises that took place in these societies following redemocratization in the 1980s and 1990s, as they confronted the legacy of violations committed under previous authoritarian governments and as the democratic administrations tried to balance normative principles and political contingency. The book also traces how these trends affected the development of politics of oblivion and memory and the restructuring of collective identity and solidarity following redemocratization. Oxford Studies in Democratization is a series for scholars and students of comparative politics and related disciplines. The series will concentrate on the comparative study of the democratization process that accompanied the decline and termination of the cold war. The geographical focus of the series will primarily be Latin America, the Caribbean, Southern and Eastern Europe, and relevant experiences in Africa and Asia.
