This book offers an analysis of the truth and justice policies implemented in Chile since the 1990s. A central assumption is that human rights policies are a form of public policy and like other public policies they are the product of the political context from which they emerged.

A central assumption is that human rights policies are a form of public policy and like other public policies they are the product of the political context from which they emerged. Consequently, the nature and extent of the human rights policies designed at a given time are a reflection of the existing political environment and of the balance of political forces. Because of their partial and political nature, these truth and justice policies instead of satisfying the victims' demands and providing a mechanism for closure and reconciliation, as expected by many, generate new demands and new policies and actions. Needless to say, these new policies and actions will also be partially satisfactory to those pursuing justice and the truth and too damaging to those trying to protect the structure of impunity. Thus, the author does not assume that Chile's human rights historical drama is finished but rather that the 40th anniversary of the violent military coup that brought General Pinochet to power provides a powerful milestone with which to end this policy analysis.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 210x148 mm;Verschijningsdatum: juni 2017;Druk: 1;ISBN10: 3319536966;ISBN13: 9783319536965; Engelstalig | Hardcover | 2017.

This book analyses Chile’s “truth and justice” policies implemented between 1990 and 2013. The book’s central assumption is that human rights policies are a form of public policy and consequently they are the product of compromises among different political actors. Because of their political nature, these incomplete “truth and justice” policies instead of satisfying the victims’ demands and providing a mechanism for closure and reconciliation generate new demands and new policies and actions. However, these new policies and actions are partially satisfactory to those pursuing justice and the truth and unacceptable to those trying to protect the impunity structure built by General Pinochet and his supporters. Thus, while the 40th anniversary of the violent military coup that brought General Pinochet to power serves as a milestone with which to end this policy analysis, Chile’s human rights historical drama is unfinished and likely to generate new demands for truth and justice policies.
