Leis de Anistia

"Amnesty Laws" is a specialized book that deals with the lawyer laws in Brazil and Argentina that were enacted after the long military regimes in both countries. These laws ended the criminal prosecution of crimes committed during the repressive years, both by the military and their opponents. The book examines the legitimacy of these laws and the ongoing debates about whether they should still be valid or require reassessment. It also highlights the conflicts between national law and international treaties signed by these countries. The topic is particularly relevant as there are both nostalgic currents of the military regime and demands for justice for the crimes committed during that time in Brazil. The work provides an in-depth analysis of the complex legal and societal issues arising from the lawyer laws.
