Description
The Pinochet File: A Declassified Dossier on Atrocity and Accountability A comprehensive and revealing account of the US government's complicity in Chile's human rights abuses under Augusto Pinochet, this book is based on declassified documents that shed new light on a dark period in Cold War history. Peter Kornbluh's work has uncovered a previously secret record of atrocity, including the stories of those executed by Pinochet's military after the 1973 coup. This updated edition includes the story of Pinochet's 2004 indictment and trial, as well as new information about two notable cases: American Charles Horman and Chilean folk singer Victor Jara. The book also examines the controversy surrounding its publication, including a major scandal that led to high-level resignations at the Council on Foreign Relations. With this edition, the full story of Pinochet's regime is now more complete than ever before.
