{"product_id":"accountability-shock-guillermo-trejo-9781009667739","title":"Accountability Shock","description":"Accountability Shock presents the first systematic explanation of why some 'Third Wave' democracies developed peacefully while others became the world's most violent. The book demonstrates how robust transitional justice processes - combining truth commissions with prosecution of autocratic-era atrocities - prevent criminal violence in new democracies. By holding authoritarian specialists in violence accountable, new democracies can break state impunity, preventing them from becoming key actors in the production of large-scale criminal violence and reshaping the logic of state coercion in democracy. With in-depth analyses of six Latin American cases, the work illuminates why transitional justice is crucial for addressing state-criminal collusion in hybrid contexts. Forged out of a close collaboration between transitional justice scholars and practitioners, Accountability Shock strengthens existing connections while offering practical insights for countries still grappling with authoritarian legacies and violence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Guillermo Trejo,Lucía Tiscornia,Juan Albarracín\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1009667734\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781009667739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/05\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.91d","brand":"Guillermo Trejo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454234636543,"sku":"9781009667739","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_df03062f-f2ab-4757-ba39-b29aa1c405b9.jpg?v=1777304972","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/accountability-shock-guillermo-trejo-9781009667739","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
