Description: "Pérez tackles a crucial topic to understand the climate of uncertainty and vulnerability that oppresses Mexican society: the behavior of the army during the past few years. The author examines in detail the structural violence of the military ranks and directly confronts the impunity with which soldiers have frequently been allowed to break the law, violate human rights, and attack the civilian population without any kind of legal consequence"--Amazon.com.
