Where Is Justice in Guatemala?
Perera, Victor | May 24, 1993 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on socio-political developments related to Guatemala. Guatemala's apertura, or political opening, hangs in the balance between two factions, a small alliance of journalists, human rights advocates and civic action and labor leaders intent on preserving or widening the political space, on the one hand, and a right-wing opposition-headed by the military-that is bent on closing it, on the other. The military tightened control over key government institutions in February and March. Postal union workers complained of interference in their offices, where private mail was seized and opened by G-2 intelligence agents.
