The Right to Do Wrong
Who Are Atrocity's “Real” Perpetrators, Who Its “True” Victims and Beneficiaries
Modern law's response to mass atrocities vacillates equivocally in how it understands the dramatis personae to these expansive tragedies, at once extraordinary and ubiquitous. Is there any principled order to this? If not, should we care

The ghost-like figures represented those who had 'disappeared' in the military's proclaimed 'war against subversion'.
