“…Such spaces have increasingly become the focus of enquiry for geographers interested in “understanding transitional justice by exploring the spaces through which judicial processes operate and the spatial imaginaries they bring into being” (Jeffrey, , p. 344). Researchers working in this area have interrogated the tensions engendered by the distance often present between sites of violence and the mechanisms set up to investigate them (Jeffrey, ; Oglesby & Ross, ). Other research into the spatiality of institutions of transitional justice has emphasised the impact of the physical experience of crossing the threshold of a war crimes court (Jeffrey & Jakala, ), and explored the nature of a criminal tribunal as a space of performance where justice must be “seen to be done” (Hughes, ).…”

“…Sería impensable que movimientos políticos de esa naturaleza en el pasado hubiesen logrado potenciar las radios indígenas como ha sucedido en los últimos 30 años. Condiciones políticas como el genocidio contra indígenas en lugares como Guatemala (Hooker, 2005;Oglesby y Ross, 2009) o las dictaduras militares de Argentina, Brasil, Chile y Paraguay, hubiesen hecho casi imposible expresiones mediáticas similares. En este sentido, Deborah Yashar (2005) ha argumentado que estamos en presencia de un movimiento emergente indígena que aunque se manifiesta de forma desigual, se ha traducido en un proceso de organización política significativa en algunos lugares.…”

“…La DSN fue el principio militar que guió al ejército de Guatemala durante la guerra fría (Schirmer, 1998); además, promovía la idea del enemigo interno como la principal amenaza a la estabilidad nacional, una noción intrínseca a la represión durante la guerra civil en Guatemala. El concepto de enemigo interno podía aplicarse, entonces, a los miembros del partido comunista, a los políticos de oposición, a los curas, a los sindicalistas urbanos, a los intelectuales o a los activistas rurales (Oglesby y Ross, 2009).…”
