However, in nature and scale the measures far exceeded any justifiable response to the coup attempt. Within the first three months of the state of emergency, 35 medical establishments, 934 private teaching institutions, 109 private student dormitories, 104 foundations, 1125 associations, 15 private universities, 19 unions, 45 newspapers, 15 journals, 18 TV stations, and 29 publishing houses were shut down.

Comment on The Invisible Violence Behind the Legal Façade by Frederick Spielberg https://joxcsls.com/2016/11/01/the-invisible-violence-behind-the-legal-facade/comment-page-1/#comment-22 Sun, 06 Nov 2016 01:22:57 +0000 http://joxcsls.com/?p=800#comment-22 Wow, what an eloquent portrayal of field work in the land of Macondo, and of the difficulties involved in ferreting out the reality. (Cf. Clifford Geertz’ “Deep Play” in Bali.) I would only add that the legalistic and systematic annotation of every violation of rights (e.g., 8 million officially tabulated victims and counting, each duly registered by the Government agency on the appropriate forms) constitutes one fascinating and maddening aspect of Colombian society. The attention to detail, format and law is nearly Germanic in nature. However, as Elena Butti’s article points out, the real ability of Colombian structures and society to correct and provide reparations for these wrongs is still only nascent. Very much looking forward to Butti’s next bulletin from the field.
