Human Rights, Hegemony, and Utopia in Latin America: Poverty, Forced Migration and Resistance in Mexico and Colombia

BOOK by CROP Fellow Camilo Pérez-Bustillo and Karla Hernández Mares

In this new book Camilo Pérez-Bustillo and Karla Hernández Mares explore the evolving relationship between hegemonic and counter-hegemonic visions of human rights, within the context of cases in contemporary Mexico and Colombia, and their broader implications.

The first three chapters provide an introduction to the book´s overall theoretical framework, which is then applied to a series of more specific issues (migrant rights and the rights of indigenous peoples) and cases (primarily focused on contexts in Mexico and Colombia,) to illustrate broader trends both in Latin America and globally.
