Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. «Un relato absorbente que plantea una inquietante pregunta: ¿Cómo es posible que fascistas brutales como Habré, y otros jefes de Estado asesinos, evadan durante tanto tiempo la justicia en los tribunales tras perder el poder?». Steve Levingston, The Washington Post ¿Qué se necesita para que un dictador responda por sus crímenes? Hissène Habré, expresidente de Chad, atemorizó, torturó y asesinó a una escala aterradora durante sus ocho sangrientos años en el poder. Lo hizo con pleno apoyo de Occidente. Tras ser derrocado, la búsqueda de justicia por parte de las víctimas fue larga, tensa e inquietante. Este es el dramático relato de la caza de Habré y de su histórico juicio. Narrado en primera persona por el abogado experto en crímenes de guerra Reed Brody, conocido como «El cazador de dictadores», reconstruye cómo él y un equipo internacional de investigadores, asesores legales y las propias víctimas trabajaron coordinados en tres continentes para desenterrar pruebas y testigos, presentar peticiones ante tribunales y gobiernos escépticos, y movilizar la opinión pública. Enfrentaron numerosos obstáculos y constantes amenazas, pero nunca desfallecieron. Con lecciones aplicables a la búsqueda de justicia en Ucrania y Gaza, esta crónica vibrante nos demuestra que la impunidad que a menudo protege a los poderosos no es inevitable y que incluso los peores tiranos pueden ser llevados ante la justicia. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Trade paperback. Zustand: Good. [6], 206 pages. Wraps. Illustrations. map, chronology, footnotes, bibliography, covers somewhat worn and soiled. Reed Brody is an American human rights lawyer. He specializes in helping victims pursue abusive leaders for atrocities, and has gained fame as the "Dictator Hunter". He worked as counsel for the victims in the case of the exiled former dictator of Chad, Hissène Habré - who was convicted of crimes against humanity in Senegal - and has worked with the victims of Augusto Pinochet and Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier. He currently works with victims of the former dictator of Gambia Yahya Jammeh. After law school, Brody worked as New York State Assistant Attorney General from 1980 to 1984 where he authored consumer protection laws and advocated on behalf of consumers and workers in class action-type suits against large corporations and financial institutions. Brody left his position as Assistant Attorney General to research and uncover a pattern of atrocities against Nicaraguan civilians by US-funded "contras". His report, Contra Terror in Nicaragua received national front-page coverage and led to U.S. Congressional hearings and a temporary halt to contra funding. Brody conducted a speaking tour of over 60 U.S. cities and appeared as co-counsel with the Center for Constitutional Rights in litigation in U.S. federal court to stop U.S. aid to contras. His report was also introduced into evidence in the case Nicaragua v. United States at the International Court of Justice in The Hague. He was attacked by United States President Ronald Reagan, who called him a Sandinista "sympathizer". A telling indictment of the U.S. policy of attempting to destabilize Nicaragua through a campaign of terror directed at its people. The testimony of the victims of contra attacks exposes the policy of torture, murder, rape, kidnapping, and random violence employed by the people Ronald Reagan describes as "the moral equals of our founding fathers". In a letter to the New York Times, Reed Brody wrote: To the Editor: In his April 15 address, President Reagan sought to cast doubt on my report (page A1, March 7) of atrocities by anti-Sandinista ''contras'' in Nicaragua by alleging I was ''shepherded through Nicaragua by Sandinista operatives'' (excerpts, April 16). Each account of murder, brutality, rape and kidnapping in my report is based on the sworn affidavits of eyewitnesses who were selected and interviewed with no interference and whose names and addresses are listed. Representatives of the Washington Office on Latin America, the International Human Rights Law Group and Americas Watch have independently confirmed the accuracy of these horrible accounts and documented many others. Your March 7 article also verified four incidents chosen at random. The President cannot deny the systematic terror of these so-called ''freedom fighters.'' REED BRODY New York, April 17, 1985. Excerpts from an article in The Washington Post: Inquiry Finds Atrocities By Nicaraguan 'Contras' By Joanne Omang, March 7, 1985 An independent attorney's probe of charges that antigovernment rebels in Nicaragua commit human rights atrocities has produced 145 sworn affidavits from witnesses that he claims document "a distinct pattern" of murders, kidnappings, assaults and torture of civilians. The report by Reed Brody, 31, a former assistant state attorney general in New York, is to be released at a news conference today by the International Human Rights Law Group and the Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA), private groups that endorse the findings. Rep. Samuel Gejdenson (D-Conn.), who is also scheduled to attend the news conference, said yesterday that the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, of which he is a member, will review the report to check its accuracy. "It's clear we have a situation where the 'contra' [rebel] targets are primarily and almost exclusively civilians," he said. If Congress provides $14 million in additional aid to the rebels that the Reagan administration has requested, he said, "we become knowing accomplices to the crimes of the contras." The report is the latest in an escalating crossfire of studies, testimony and speechmaking by both the Reagan administration and its critics over the future of the three-year-old program of U.S. aid to rebel groups fighting the leftist Sandinista government of Nicaragua. Brody's report is the first to include sworn affidavits from witnesses who he said are available for further questioning. Brody said in an interview that he began the study after visiting Nicaragua last summer with an office colleague whose brother is a priest there. Moved by residents' accounts of contra attacks, he said, he was receptive when Paul Reichler, Nicaragua's attorney in Washington, suggested a serious probe of the charges "as if taking evidence for a court case." Brody said he wrote the 141-page report and approached WOLA -- known as a critic of administration policy -- which joined the International Human Rights Law Group in sending two other attorneys to Nicaragua to recheck Brody's findings. The two are New York attorney Donald T. Fox, vice president of the International Commission of Jurists, and Michael J. Glennon, former counsel to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. In a joint statement, they said "the preponderance of the evidence indicates that the contras are committing serious abuses against civilians" and that Brody's report appears accurate.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What does it take to make a dictator answer for his crimes Hissène Habré, the former despot of Chad, had terrorized, tortured, and killed on a horrific scale over eight bloody years in power-all while enjoying full American and Western support. After Habré's overthrow, his victims and their supporters were determined to see him held responsible for his atrocities. Their quest for justice would be long, tense, and unnerving, but they would not back down.To Catch a Dictator is a dramatic insider's account of the hunt for Habré and his momentous trial. The human rights lawyer Reed Brody recounts how he and an international team of investigators, legal experts, and victims worked across three continents to unearth evidence and witnesses, petition courts and skeptical governments, and rally public opinion. They faced many obstacles and constant threats. One of Brody's Chadian colleagues was gravely injured in a bomb attack, and another had to seek asylum in the United States. Habré fought back bitterly, drawing on secret bank accounts and extensive political connections to preserve his life of luxurious exile. Yet Brody and his allies ultimately triumphed: Habré became the first former head of state to be convicted of crimes against humanity in the courts of another country. This fast-paced, suspenseful book shows that there is nothing inevitable about the impunity that too often protects the powerful and that even the worst tyrants can be brought to justice.The book also features a foreword by Jacqueline Moudeïna, the lead lawyer for Hissène Habré's victims, who received the Right Livelihood Award (the 'alternative Nobel Peace Prize') in 2011.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Combatir los crímenes contra la humanidad puede tener graves consecuencias personales, pero también generar grandes recompensas humanitarias a quienes se atreven. Reed Brody demuestra en primera persona en este libro, de acción trepidante, que la lucha de las víctimas y de las organizaciones de defensa de los Derechos Humanoshace posible que la justicia gane, a veces, contra la impunidad consentida, como en el caso del dictador Hissène Habré, el Pinochet africano que masacró a su pueblo en El Chad'.BALTASAR GARZÓN ¿Qué se necesita para que un dictador responda por sus crímenes Hissène Habré, expresidente del Chad, sembró el terror durante ocho años de sangre, tortura y asesinatos masivos, todo con el respaldo de las potencias occidentales. Tras su caída, sus víctimas emprendieron una lucha sin tregua por la justicia que desafió al poder, la indiferencia y el olvido. En esta crónica trepidante, Reed Brody, el abogado conocido como el 'cazador de dictadores', narra desde dentro la persecución de Habré y el juicio histórico que lo condenó. Junto a un equipo de víctimas, juristas e investigadores, recorrió tres continentes para reunir pruebas, convencer a gobiernos reticentes y movilizar a la opinión pública. Resistieron a obstáculos constantes, desde un atentado con bomba hasta cuentas secretas que protegían el lujoso exilio de Habré. Con lecciones urgentes para los crímenes de hoy en Gaza o Ucrania, este apasionante relato demuestra que la impunidad no es un destino inevitable, y que incluso los tiranos más poderosos pueden ser llevados ante la justicia.Reseñas:'Una poderosa historia de crímenes reales que es, al mismo tiempo, apasionante, técnica y profundamente humana, escrita por uno de los más aguerridos defensores de la justicia del mundo'.Philipp Sands 'Un relato absorbente que plantea una inquietante pregunta: ¿Cómo es posible que fascistas brutales como Habré, y otros jefes de Estado asesinos,evadan durante tanto tiempo la justicia en los tribunales tras perder el poder '.Steve Levingston, The Washington Post.…
