Download or read book The Salvador Option written by Russell Crandall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 719 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Salvador's civil war between the Salvadoran government and Marxist guerrillas erupted into full force in early 1981 and endured for eleven bloody years. Unwilling to tolerate an advance of Soviet and Cuban-backed communism in its geopolitical backyard, the US provided over six billion dollars in military and economic aid to the Salvadoran government. El Salvador was a deeply controversial issue in American society and divided Congress and the public into left and right. Relying on thousands of archival documents as well as interviews with participants on both sides of the war, The Salvador Option offers a thorough and fair-minded interpretation of the available evidence. If success is defined narrowly, there is little question that the Salvador Option achieved its Cold War strategic objectives of checking communism. Much more difficult, however, is to determine what human price this 'success' entailed - a toll suffered almost entirely by Salvadorans in this brutal civil war.

Download or read book Peace Without Justice written by Margaret Popkin and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popkin analyzes the role of international actors, notably the United States and the United Nations, and the contributions and limitations of international assistance in efforts to establish accountability and reform the justice system in El Salvador. The author discusses the essential role of civil society in attempts to establish accountability and an effective justice system for all, and looks at the reasons for and the consequences of the limited role played by Salvadorean civil society. She also addresses the challenges facing democratic reform efforts in the context of a postwar crime wave. Peace Without Justice grew out of Margaret Popkin's extensive experience working as a human rights advocate in El Salvador during the armed conflict and interviews with a variety of Salvadorans and others involved in justice reform and in negotiating and implementing the peace accords.
Download or read book Protecting the Dispossessed written by Francis M. Deng and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated 25 million people worldwide are internally displaced—a significantly larger population than the 18 million refugees. Victims of civil wars, forced relocation, communal violence, natural and ecological disasters, and gross violations of human rights, they lack such human necessities as food, shelter, clothing, safety, basic health, and education. But because they remain inside their countries, they don't receive the same protection and assistance from the international community as those who cross borders and become refugees. Their plight, however, is drawing increasing international attention. In March 1992, Francis Deng was appointed Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary-General to study this harrowing situation. In this book, a substantially revised version of his report to the UN, Deng examines the causes and consequences of internal displacement, the legal standards for protection and assistance, enforcement mechanisms, the prevailing conditions in the affected countries, and the urgent need for an international response. In a compelling first-person narrative, Protecting the Dispossessed follows Deng's investigation and is based on interviews and information from governments, international organizations, individuals, and visits to several countries in Europe, Africa, and Latin America. Deng argues that sovereignty entails a responsibility to ensure the safety and welfare of the citizens and to protect fundamental human rights; the international community must uphold this standard and make violators accountable. While he acknowledges that steps are being taken in the right direction, he maintains that there is still much to be done. He presents a bold proposal, one that requires substantial changes in the international system, in the politics of major governments, and in the relations between states. He proposes a three-phase strategy aimed at monitoring conditions worldwide: to detect impending crises, ale

Book excerpt: This book is a combination of articles, testimonies, photographs and statistics that provide a vivid picture of the root cause of refugee movements and the refugee experience itself. After a short introduction by W. Shawcross describing his personal experiences with refugees, the book focuses on governments which turn against their people forcing them to flee. Interspersed with photographs are eye-witness accounts of the tyranny of terror and the memories of refugees of their homeland. Within this section, A. Neier outlines 'the scorched earth policy of the counterinsurgency strategy' and J. Laber analyses the situation in Eastern Europe and governments' decisions as to who can leave. There are also some general facts about 'the destruction of Central America' and a tally of conflict around the globe. Part two of the book focuses inside the world's refugee camps. In addition to photographs and testimonies from those inside the camps, there is factual information about refugee camps around the world, demographic information on refugees, and an article on refugee camps by M. Malloch Brown. The third Part of the book calls attention to the problem of placing refugees. Included are facts about 'xenophobia in the first world' and an article by B. Frelick concerning who controls who is allowed to enter a country. The end of the book contains a covenant on the rights of people in need of refuge.
