Winifred Tate, an anthropologist and activist with extensive experience in Colombia, finds that radically different ideas about human rights have shaped three groups of human rights professionals working there--nongovernmental activists, state representatives, and military officers. Drawing from the life stories of high-profile activists, pioneering interviews with military officials, and research at the United Nations Human Rights Commission in Geneva, \u003ci\u003eCounting the Dead \u003c\/i\u003eunderscores the importance of analyzing and understanding human rights discourses, methodologies, and institutions within the context of broader cultural and political debates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Winifred Tate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520252837\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520252837\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/09\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 7.15w x 0.95d","brand":"Winifred Tate","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47243991613695,"sku":"9780520252837","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5f130a96-25ad-4ae9-938c-f52a419aa2db.jpg?v=1758134672","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/counting-the-dead-winifred-tate-9780520252837","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
